Do you use the road and is it as dangerous as the mayor claims?

Over the coming year, the average property price for Wellington would cross the $1 million mark, said Nicki Cruickshank, a real estate agent with Tommy’s Wellington. “You can't really get a three-bedroom house in Wellington under $1m now, anyway.”
Porirua City experienced a 20.8 per cent annual growth in residential property values, Lower Hutt and Upper Hutt cities both experienced 17.2 per cent growth, and Kāpiti Coast 18.3 per cent.

Hi, I’ve been looking after 2 baby I think blackbirds for a few days after my cat bought them in. The nest is too high to put them back.
However we are going away tomorrow and we don’t have anyone to look after them. They are not feeding by themselves yet but I don’t think they are far away … View moreHi, I’ve been looking after 2 baby I think blackbirds for a few days after my cat bought them in.

However we are going away tomorrow and we don’t have anyone to look after them. They are not feeding by themselves yet but I don’t think they are far away from this.
If anyone is keen to take them and look after them until they can leave the nest that would be appreciated.
They are currently housed in a shoe box and I’ve got bird feed for them.
