What do you think of the capital's traffic?

Georgia Reporter from Stuff

Hi neighbours,

What's the traffic like in your city? The good, the bad, and the ugly of the Wellington region's transport has been laid bare in a council report, which will be presented to the region's mayors this week.

The report found that traffic entering Wellington during the morning peak was travelling at an average speed of 35.4kmh, while evening traffic heading out was hitting 39.7kmh. That's the slowest recorded speed since 2014! To read more about this, click here.

So what's your work commute like? Do you have an issue with congestion, the safety of roading, and rising diesel sales in your city? Share your thoughts with us in the replies below. (Please add "NFP/not for print" if you do not want your images/ comments used on Stuff)

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Desperately seeking bottle fed calf as friend for ours.

Linda from Moonshine Valley

Hi, we have 1 very lonely calf which was abandoned by its mum. We are looking for a companion calf, still being bottle fed so our wee one isn't alone. This is urgent. Thank you.
