Please join us in the fight to keep Karangahape Road's name alive. We've got wind of the fact that some members of the council are considering renaming it due to associations which they would describe as 'seedy'. Look how fast they pushed through Super City. If we don't act fast we won't be able to stop it. K' Rd has been around since the 1800's, and renaming it would destroy it. We must protect this iconic Kiwi street.
We are approaching 250 signatures and need to hit that mark to demand a meeting with the council. Post the link on Facebook right now and tag your local representatives to ensure they see this momentum.

Ridiculous waste of time and money by the council. Fix the potholes instead of worrying about the name.

K Rd is K Rd. Stop changing everything to suit the new crowd. Leave history alone.
