Tranz Rail accepts this recommendation.

Tranz Rail has worked in partnership with the owners of Egmont Tanneries and the District Council to upgrade an existing alternative access route for use by the public and the tannery. The level crossing will be closed upon completion of the new access road. This is expected to occur during February 2002.
