highway

Tony from Glenfield

Ever since Kaipatiki and Beachaven start the waste water pipe project Peach road is like a highway. Cars, utes trucks bus bike zoom down Peach road. Residence that coming out of the driveway have to be extra caution.Sometimes when our cars is halfway out the cars don't even slow down and give way .they just swing around and zoom off.Utes don't and trucks don't even slow down at the speed bumps.There was once a trailer came off the trucks and screech on the road. Drivers slow down and give way. There are cars parked outside my house so close to the edge of the driveway and there is a van blocking the view as we do not have any visible to see oncoming cars. There are also cars parked on the berm.
Would suggest a mobile speed camera or police with lasers to ticket all the nuisance cars. In the weekend we try to sleep a bit late but we can't.cars with trailers truck just zoom across and make loud banging noise.

There's only a few differences between our larger chain supermarkets here in New Zealand. Having someone bag your groceries is one of them.

Does having your groceries packed for you at the checkout influence where you do your grocery shop? If so, tell us why.

Poll: Would you commute by public transport if it was free?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Using your car is convenient, except for finding parking.

Cycling lets you leave anytime, but you might arrive soaked.

So, neighbours, if public transport had the perk of being free, would it be your main way to commute?
