The little bridge over Oratia stream was filthy and run down.  So a request was lodged, by Oratia R&R’s stealth beautification division,  to Auckland Transport for a fresh lick of paint .

Well we have half a result, as they’ve painted one side of the bridge………. but not the other.  It’s made a huge difference to the good side.

On a bright note,   they’ve been very helpful on the phone, we have a job number,  and it looks like the the other side will be painted to match shortly.

Good work Auckland Transport, we’re half way there.  And I reckon when it’s finished it’s going to be  charming and a nice result for the gateway to Oratia village.
