Tell Auckland Transport to Remove T2/Bus Lane on Pakuranga Road
I've launched a petition calling on Auckland Transport to remove the T2/Bus lane from Pakuranga Road and prioritise the Reeves Road Flyover.
Locals have told me their travel time from Howick to Panmure is taking 40+ minutes some days - an unacceptable amount of time - and it has created confusion around the Gossamer Drive intersection. I support AT's desire to increase public transport usage, but not at the expense of the majority of commuters and certainly not with half-baked solutions like this.
The Eastern Busway and Reeves Road Flyover are projects this community desperately wants, as they will both make a real difference to congestion issues in the area. If you support this view, please sign the petition on my website. simeonbrown.national.org.nz...
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)
.
