Repair our bus stop!

Help repair our smashed bus stop!

Castlecliff, Whanganui

Castlecliff has had a beautiful engraved glass bus stop since July 2020. As something done with respect and with the Castlecliff community (we had around 200 people at the bus stop opening!) it has been respected and valued by the community especially the local primary schoolchildren who worked with artist Claire Bell on the design.

Sadly someone didn't seem to agree that Castlecliff deserves good and beautiful things and two panels were smashed on Saturday night (afternoon/evening 20th January/early morning 21st January).

As a community, we want to say NO to people who hurt our environment and say that Castlecliff deserves and respects good things.

You can help

- if you can help narrow when the damage happened or have an idea who did this contact the NZ Police on 105 quoting file 240121/7144

- donate money to help repair the damage (donations via Progress Castlecliff (a registered charity so are tax deductible). If we have excess funds and/or repairs are fully covered by either Horizons or Whanganui District Council funds will first be used for Cliffy (the triceratops) then other public art in the Rangiora Street / Castlecliff domain area.
