Wind: Harbour Bridge

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

This evening (Monday, 14th October) there will be high winds and NZTA have shared a message for those using the Harbour Bridge.

What you need to know:
- The wind watch is for between 8pm Monday 14 October and 9am Tuesday 15 October.
- At this time, the Harbour Bridge will be in 4 x 4 formation. This may remain for the Tuesday morning peak traffic.
- During this period be prepared for speed and lane restrictions.
- Motorists are urged to drive to the conditions and look out for the electronic message boards and traffic management which will indicate lane closures and reduced speeds, and stay within their lane while travelling across the bridge.
- If gusts exceed the wind thresholds there is a possibility of a temporary full closure on the bridge.
- Drivers of high sided vehicles and motorcyclists are advised to avoid the Auckland Harbour Bridge and use the western ring route on State Highways 16 and 18. We also recommend other motorists use the western ring route where possible.

NZTA will continue to work closely with Metservice to monitor conditions and ensure decisions are made based on up-to-date and accurate information on predicted and current wind speeds. You can keep up to date with traffic at the NZTA website.

After years of perfecting the greens on the field, he's ready to share tips on how to knock your garden out of the park.

Hey Pakeha - are you gonna let Seymour talk for you

Sarnia from Auckland Central

Govt is elected to
1) provide goods and services that one person can not on their own. Eg Hospitals / Police. Govt is not to change our Agreement / History Treaty of Waitangi because some minor party of a coalition (wannabe control freak) says so.
2) Wrong Chris needs to do (at the first bill reading, not second) what the people want, not what Seymour wants!!!!!!!!!! Upsetting the apple cart Seymour v 52,000. Loser Seymour!!!!!!!!
