He urged the public to report any of these types of things to police or Regional Council (06 835 9200) as soon as possible.
Back in September 2020, man traps were located on the Carrick Rd track, near the Ngaruroro River.
The track was frequently used by mountain bikers and motorbike riders, including Stacy Howie who was flung from his motorbike when his chest hit metal wire strung between two trees on the Carrick Rd track.
He suffered injuries to his neck, chest, shoulder, wrist and ankle.
Howie said the wire "would have definitely taken my head off" if placed slightly higher.
"I could've died if it hit my neck on first impact instead of my upper chest," he said at the time.
"I would ride there again, but only ever on my usual tracks that I've checked."
