Amyes Road - Shands Road traffic jam
Once again I have spent 15 minutes waiting in a line of traffic on Amyes Road Hornby. This traffic jam could be easily fixed if the 'yellow no parking lines' on Amyes Road by the Rail Crossing were extended along the left hand side. Cars parked on the left hand side of the road stop traffic turning left into Shands Road and also stop traffic going straight ahead onto Goulding Ave. If you are frustrated with this intersection please write to council and suggest the extension of the yellow lines. In some cities they have 'tow away' areas where cars parked at busy intersections during the busiest traffic hours are removed, but it would be cheaper to have the yellow no parking lines.
Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
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.

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?
An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.
When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
