Councillors have rejected a politically unpopular $400,000 raised pedestrian crossing between Claudelands Park and a busy Hamilton mosque.
However, they’ve asked staff to look into a more expensive light-controlled crossing slightly further up the road.

Have you seen fisheries officers out and about?
Dumping your illicit catch then fleeing fisheries officers is about the worst thing you can do this summer and one group in Raglan found this out the hard way.
They were picked up as authorities ramp up their compliance work at boatramps across the region to make sure fishers are sticking to the rules. While most do - some even have their own sustainability codes - others do not.
