Calls For Vehicles To Be Banned On Muriwai Beach

Published: Jan. 21, 2024, 7:15 p.m.

Some locals want a permanent vehicle ban on Auckland's Muriwai beach.

A teenage girl died yesterday after being thrown from a ute that rolled on top of her - two others have serious injuries.

A fisherman described a vehicle hooning and doing burnouts.

Rodney Local Board chair Brent Bailey told Tim Dower vehicles were banned from the beach during the holiday break - but allowed back from January the 15th.

He personally believes it's reached a point where they can't afford to have vehicles on the beach with all the fishers, bathers, dog walkers and horses.
