New bus shelters have been built beside the additional bus lane, and new road markings have been placed on the fresh seal. A safer, raised “zebra” pedestrian crossing has been built across Bank Street from near Biggie Bagels café to the upgraded terminal.
This upgrade is part of a range of improvements designed to improve on-foot connections and public transport options. Check out some of the other projects here:

Information collated by our research team has found that tens of thousands of Kiwis are still missing out on hundreds of dollars of savings each year on their broadband bill, because they are failing to shop around for cheaper broadband plans.
We estimate that over 500,000 households would be able to pay less for their broadband each month but many consumers are unaware of the fact that they could be making these savings and people often don’t know where to start when looking for a change in broadband plan or provider.
This is where NZ Compare can help. Our websites are simple to use and if you need more help, our friendly, Auckland based, customer support centre can advise on the most suitable broadband plan for your needs and help talk you through the switch. With unlimited fibre broadband plans available for less than $60 a month why would you pay more?
Find out more at NZ Compare or call the team on 0508 226672
CORRECTION: This post has been amended to clarify that the price of fibre and copper broadband internet services will increase, and that the increase is between $3 and $5 a month, not only $5 a month on fibre broadband plans as previously posted. (Amended at 10.31am, June 23, 2022)

Lunana: A Yak in the Classroom
| PG | Dzongkha (Bhutanese) with English subtitles
Ugyen, a trainee teacher, is sent to a regional school to test his skills in a classroom.
His dream is to travel to Australia and swim at Bondi Beach but his first school is 5000 metres above sea-level and based in a village with a population of 50. And a yak.
This is a genuinely lovable film; an absolute gem that’s my new favourite 2022 movie. - Graeme Tuckett, STUFF
