Light Rail Auckland to Airport

Clive from Green Bay

Once Covid is finished then this is a good idea but only when the buses and express coaches are overloaded or uneconomical.
At present it is the economics that is causing problems because it is prohibitively expensive to travel by bus from say Green Bay to the airport for even one person.

Most families are 2 or more people so uber becomes much cheaper and far more convenient. But what about all the fuel we are wasting if we go by car and do not use public transport? Surely this is causing pollution and global warming??
So we need urgently to reduce bus prices to compete against uber rates and fill those buses until its standing room only on the airport run before we invest in a rail link. NOTE The council must reserve the planned rail route for future use but opening it now as a cycleway.

Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.

This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.

Do you think this ban is reasonable?
