The following was submitted by a resident in the Raumati area by sending her writing to the funny looking email address found below and you are encouraged to do the same so it can be posted here too...

I would like to see Regional Council honour its commitments to Raumati people over many decades and finally construct a simple platform and shelter for us to use, with a pedestrian overbridge like that at Paremata and Papakowhai, and the use of the carpark with access through the top of Poplar Avenue.

This has all been planned for so loooong now! Plans made and drawn up, funding secured, project work prepared - and then DUMPED because Regional Council wanted to use the money given to make up for shortfalls in their planning on other projects!

Why cant they get it right and provide rail to people who want to use it?
