CRASH CORNER STREET MEETING
Hi neighbours, despite the dreary weather, my 'Crash Corner' Street Meeting will still go ahead.
AT confirmed overnight that they are accelerating the design and construction process for our safety improvements and as an interim measure, they will install by the end of this month additional signs and road markings, including:
* Gated (on both sides of the road) “Stop” signage on Victoria Street for both approaches;
* Advance “Stop ahead” warning sign on Victoria Street for both approaches;
* Painted flush median improvements, with raised pavement markers to enhance the stop control from Victoria Street;
* Advance “cross intersection” warning sign on Church Street for both approaches;
* “High risk intersection ahead” signage at all approaches;
BUT, this is still not good enough. We DEMAND that AT sets a construction date for the planned roundabout at the Church and Victoria Street intersection. These interim measures are a success, but cannot be a bandaid on broken leg. I want assurances that this intersection takes priority over the America's Cup beauty projects.
Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
Do you think NZ should follow suit? Vote in our poll and share your thoughts below.
