The NBus changes start today!
There are timetable changes on all routes as of today the 30th July, so grab a copy of the new timetable from the depot in Bridge Street, on the bus or from the Council office in Trafalgar Street. You can also see it all online at nbus.co.nz.
Some services will be leaving earlier and some slightly later so please check the new timetable to avoid missing the bus or having a longer wait!
A new Stoke loop is back on the road from today, 30 July too. The updated service runs five times every weekday. It starts from the Tennis Courts at Main Road Stoke and travels around the suburb between Saxton Road East, Quarantine Road, The Ridgeway and Seaview Road.
The buses leave at 9.15, 10.15, 11.15, 1.15 and 2.15 every weekday so get on board.
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?
