Cycle way closed temporarily
Cycleway temporarily closed: A decision to temporarily close a part of a Hastings cycle trail has been made by the New Zealand Cycle Trail board, while ways to make it safer are investigated.
The affected cycle path, known as the Tuki Tuki Loop, runs from the Waimarama and Te Mata Rd intersection and along Tuki Tuki Rd onto Moore Rd. Hawke's Bay Trails, which looks after the region's cycleways, will be looking at ways to improve safety along the route. In the meantime maps are being changed to reflect the temporary closure, cycleway signs are being removed, and cycle businesses and associations have been advised. Please share this message with your cycling friends. For more information email NZ Cycle Trails using the link: www.nzcycletrail.com...
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?
