Retirement in New Zealand is evolving as people live longer, healthier lives, and the number of Kiwis who choose to continue working later in life is rising.

Retirement is your time to do what you love. Maybe for you this doesn't mean stopping work altogether; instead, it can mean shifting gears to something more fulfilling or pursuing passions that you now have time for. This might mean volunteering, part-time work, or even starting your own business.

Here’s some helpful advice from Ryman residents in the workforce.

Buses

Justine from The Brook

Due to now being at home I have been able to count how many times the huge empty buses are going past- 72 times every day !!!!!!! That’s 504 times a week and 26,308 times a year ( less public holidays). This beyond ridiculous - this madness must be stopped!!! What is the electricity costing us … View moreDue to now being at home I have been able to count how many times the huge empty buses are going past- 72 times every day !!!!!!! That’s 504 times a week and 26,308 times a year ( less public holidays). This beyond ridiculous - this madness must be stopped!!! What is the electricity costing us ratepayers to power these? Why does my house creak and crack when they thunder past? How is the infrastructure holding up - the roads, roundabouts, bridges, turnarounds, etc? Nelson’s public transport system needs investigating as someone is making some very poor financial decisions with our money…..

Just received an answer to my LGOIA and it would appear that many bridges within Nelson are not built to support these huge buses. For instance, the bridge in Seymour Avenue has a NZTA VDAM rule that axle weight not exceed 8400kg. The new huge buses have an axle weight of 11,800. And they cross this bridge 72 times a day! But it’s ok because the council have granted them a permit…… this is insanity!!! Alex Louverdis - group manager of infrastructure - is the one to question.
