Stratford's iconic glockenspiel is no longer the only one of its kind in the Southern Hemisphere.
It has been joined by a smaller version of itself, proudly on display in Stratford's new bike park, which opened to the public on Saturday. While the mini-glockenspiel would have been a familiar sight to the many children visiting the bike park over the weekend, the traffic lights were a new feature, and are the only traffic lights to be found in the Stratford district.
"I like the stop light, and I like the moving ramp as well."
Jazmine Javulos, 8, thought the traffic lights were a great feature in the park, and she carefully stopped at them each time she looped around the course, waiting for the green light.
Her mum, Jezka Birondo, said she was pleased the park was open, and was impressed by many of the features.
