Hi Neighbours,
I am posting on behalf of my friends who are from Italy and living in (and loving!) New Zealand. They are a lovely couple with a young boy who is 2 and a half. They wish to move out of their current accommodation and are looking for a two bedroom house or flat on the North Shore. They make great tenants as they are extremely tidy and enjoy taking good care of their home. They are hoping to find a property with a carport or garage. Their budget is up to $500 per week. If you are looking to find great tenants or know anyone who is, then please contact Veronica on 021 082 93318. Many Thanks!

Expect heavy traffic and changeable weather over Queen’s Birthday Weekend

The NZ Transport Agency is encouraging drivers heading away for Queen’s Birthday Weekend in the Auckland and Northland region to take care and be prepared for heavy traffic, delays and changeable weather.

Metservice is forecasting a change in the weather with showers and low temperatures in the region over the weekend, so it’s important that drivers stay alert, be patient and don’t rush.

NZTA predicts the heaviest time for traffic heading north out of Auckland on SH1 will be 1pm–6pm on Friday between Pūhoi and Wellsford. For traffic returning on Monday the busiest time will be 11am – 6pm.

For motorists heading south out of Auckland, it’s heaviest at Takanini on SH1 between 10:30am and 7:30pm on Friday. Coming back, the busiest time on Monday is 10:30am – 8pm.

All instruments are unique and stringed instruments are no exception. If you put your hand on the piano, you play a note, right? It's in tune. But if you put it on the violin, maybe it is, maybe it isn't. You have to figure it out and that’s part of the joy in mastering this instrument. I know a girl who cries when she practices the violin because each note sounds so pure it cuts right to her soul. Violin Lessons available at our Glenfield Centre with our wonderful Christina!

Alternative Plan for Birkenhead Ave T3 Revealed

John Gillon from John Gillon - Kaipatiki Local Board

Obviously this would cause congestion as buses and cars merge to turn the corner, … View moreAuckland Transport recently gathered feedback on creating a new T3 lane on Birkenhead Ave, that will not connect with the T3 on Onewa Rd, and would force all vehicles to merge into one lane before turning the corner. Obviously this would cause congestion as buses and cars merge to turn the corner, but also increase congestion for vehicles heading straight into Highbury and turning right into Highbury Bypass.
I can now reveal that Auckland Transport had the option of going with a better plan, but after an internal AT workshop in September 2018, they decided not include it in the consultation. It is called the "Long Term Option" and was detailed in a document called "Birkenhead Avenue Southbound T3 Lane Options Analysis" by AECOM New Zealand Ltd in November 2018, alongside the "Short Term Option" plan that AT chose to put out for consultation.
In fact, in the "Long Term Option", there are 4 different variations, each reconfiguring the intersection in different ways, but all ensuring that both the T3 lane and general lane turn the corner separately.
What does the report say about the "Short Term Option" that went out for consultation? "The introduction of the bus lane [sic] is expected to result in some dis-benefits to general southbound traffic on Birkenhead Avenue. Queues for right turning and through movement could increase on the Birkenhead southbound approach to the Onewa intersection."
Why the "Short Term Option" was ever considered, I don't know. AT should have gone straight for the reconfiguration, or left it alone.
Coincidentally, last month the Kaipatiki Local Board gave conditional support to a T3 lane on Birkenhead Ave, subject to AT changing the Onewa Rd intersection to allow the T3 lane and general vehicle lanes to continue onto Onewa Rd as separate lanes (see attached resolution). This is in line with the "Long Term Option" that we did not know about at the time.
