Measurements from site visit:
- approx 8 metres length between columns
- forgot to measure width between columns on longer stretch…
- approx 2.4 metres tall from ground to shortest part of overhang (longer stretch of platforms)
- slightly taller to shortest part of overhang on shorter stretch of platforms
- approx 2.7-2.8 metres to higher part of overhang
- columns are approx 0.4 by 0.5 metres width/length
- double columns are about a metre length apart
- approx 2.4 metres to the edge of the platform (? might have been longer, maybe 2.7-2.8)
Other notes from site visit:
- left side platforms (shorter stretch, farthest from the station):
- dual column arrangement for more width of platform overhang
- left side platforms have a lot of overgrowth with vines/ivy from the nearby trees
- all shade underneath them (between 1-2pm)
- nearby trees seem to stretch over the platforms
- birds (incl tui) heard in the trees and possibly above the platform canopies?
- shadow and light patterns seen on ground from nearby trees
- lots of moss on this side
- right side platforms (longer stretch, closest to station):
- single column arrangement, less platform width
- most of it underneath was in sun (between 1-2pm)
- crumbling pieces from the canopy seen on the ground, eexposed rebar in the concrete above
- plants seem to be growing on the roof (on both canopies)
- trash cans still present on the platform (a bit of trash in one of them?)
- drier plants on this side
- random things hanging from platforms
