17 The Walking Track 1 Where a metalled track is required, such as around the Ferro-concrete tanks and then on to the Waihi Company’s Battery site a firm metalled walking track is required. I would suggest that it be about 1 metre to 1.2 metres wide. There is available from Bunnings a plastic Paving Base Sheet. It has 40 mm cells and The Department of Conservation has installed it in the walkway tunnel at Golden Hills, Tairua. It is unfortunately expensive but where it has been installed is standing up to the wear.. Plastic Paving in the Collins Drive, Tairua. The track could have either a wooden edge to retain the metal or just be allowed to taper off to the edge.
