Update on T2/Bus Lane on Pakuranga Road
Auckland Transport has confirmed that they will be launching the 'interim' T2/Bus Lane on Pakuranga Road from June 30.
I am disappointed with this decision and the fact that Auckland Transport has refused to make ANY sensible changes to this proposal such as providing 100m instead of 50m for motorists to change into the Bus Lane prior to key intersections such as Cascades Road and Gossamer Drive.
Auckland Transport have said this lane is only intended as a 'temporary measure' and will be removed once the Eastern Busway between Panmure and Pakuranga is completed.
I intend to hold them to that.
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)
