Find out more about the new traffic light settings by region on this interactive map.
Kia ora neighbours, the traffic lights are in sight and we'd love to know what you're most looking forward to once Aucklanders have more freedom. Maybe it's being reunited with family outside Auckland, going to the pub, or just being able to hang out inside a friend's house … View moreKia ora neighbours, the traffic lights are in sight and we'd love to know what you're most looking forward to once Aucklanders have more freedom. Maybe it's being reunited with family outside Auckland, going to the pub, or just being able to hang out inside a friend's house (and use their loo!).

Read about this Dunedin cafe where vegetables from the kitchen has been grown by the owner. The staples of pumpkins, beetroot, cabbage and carrots do well here, he says, with a wide variety of other crops including spring onions, kohlrabi, celery, fennel, kale, potatoes, silverbeet, leek, mint and herbs. Yummy!

If you are a motorcyclist and waiting for the lights in a residential area, please be mindful of people using videoconferencing at home nearby as it disturbs people trying to do business or teaching.
The current lockdown is preventing some of us from going to our usual place of work. Please be considerate of excessive noise in residential areas of Auckland.
Anyone else struggling with unnecessary excessive noise while videoconferencing during the day?
We are in now in the Mangere town centre across the Mangere Birthing center by the Mangere Saturday Market parking lot.

Here's a tip to keep you and your hairdresser safe when you get your much awaited hairdo. I did this last year and it works a treat.

I did this last year and it works a treat. Cut off the ear loops from your surgical mask, stick fashion tape (buy from Spotlight or haberdashery stores) along the two outer edges of your mask and stick it to your cheeks so the ear loops aren't in the way of scissors, hair colour and washing. Double sided tape may work, but might not stick long enough. Not a time to be complacent folks. Let's all protect eachother.
