Palmerston North is getting busier, making it harder than ever for workers to park all day around the fringes of the central city. The lack of parks in neighbourhood streets is causing tension between workers and residents.

Morning neighbours,

A collection of Palmerston North's primary and public health services will reopen on Broadway next week at the refitted and extended former Returned and Services' Association premises.

Staff based at Health on Main employed by the primary health organisation Think Hauora, Te Tihi o Ruahine Whānau Ora Alliance and the Manawatū Horowhenua Tararua Diabetes Trust are on the move.
They will be joined by MidCentral's public health and child health services.

Do you think this move will be convenient for people accessing these services? Or are you concerned Broadway is already too busy as it is?

Parking Ticket

Debra from Milson

Today I got a Parking ticket from (Wilson parking) which is unusual for me.

More unusual is that I got it for not putting up my Mobility Card when in a Mobility Park at Countdown Ranagitiki Supermarket. Yes I do have a Card and the mobility issue that says I can use these parks and am sure that as usual I put it up when I left my car. Strangely until today was unaware that Wilson Parking was monitoring these parks. How do I prove that it was up when they say it wasn't and I didn't find the ticket till I got home? For others, first off be aware someone is watching (Wilson staff) and you may get a ticket if you park in Supermarket Carpark Parks for obviously a variety of reasons.
