Maintenance and replacement needs to be continuous, else only a couple drivers learn and the rest get a clear run at cutting the corner again.

Visit any of these sites on google Streetview and the posts are almost totally gone.

Kahu/Kotere used to have flexiposts on every corner -now they’re absent from 5 bends with just 5 left at one bend and some at the Clyde Road lights. None here for example: https://www.google.com/maps/@-43.5247616,172.5960221,3a,75y,152.34h,77.63t/data=!3m7!1e1!3m5!1sME9dGw7ruhfndLsSvHBEkQ!2e0!6shttps:%2F%2Fstreetviewpixels-pa.googleapis.com%2Fv1%2Fthumbnail%3Fpanoid%3DME9dGw7ruhfndLsSvHBEkQ%26cb_client%3Dmaps_sv.tactile.gps%26w%3D203%26h%3D100%26yaw%3D356.39493%26pitch%3D0%26thumbfov%3D100!7i16384!8i8192

Ferry / St Asaph has been reworked so totally different now.
