It's not London's Abbey Rd but Castlecliff's Rangiora St now has a pedestrian crossing which may become a hot spot for photographs mirroring the Beatles' famous album cover.
As part of upgrades to the street, a new crossing has been painted on the lower block and with a little bit of extra paint, artist Dan Mills has given the standard zebra crossing a 3D appearance from certain angles.
Progress Castlecliff's Jamie Waugh said the optical illusion crossing was something a bit different and added to the attractions along the road to Castlecliff Beach.
He hoped people would use it as an opportunity to take photos.
It was a collaboration between council, the community and local artists and in that sense the crossing represented what the Castlecliff Rejuvenation project was all about.
