The line it runs

It passes through McLeans Island, every suburb the line crosses, not just the one its middle sits in.

Runs out and back to Waimakariri River Regional Park, the named ground at each end of the drawn line.

McLeans walking track, the layer’s own note on the line.

The lines it meets

Other open lines whose drawn course comes within 40 m of this one, the layer splits one trail into many features, so a line it touches is often the same walk’s next leg.

The green it crosses

Parks and reserves whose drawn outline the line enters, measured against the line itself, not a buffer around it.

The reports along it

10 reports pinned within 150 m of the drawn line, most often Trees & parks and Rubbish & dumping, 6 with a photograph. A pin is where a reporter stood, not a claim about the track itself.
