New Crossings in Awatea Street & Kenepuru Drive

Porirua City Council

Do you know how to use these new crossings in Porirua?

Pedestrians must give way to traffic - the central refuge is to help pedestrians safely cross busy roads.

If you are a pedestrian:
• Wait until the road is clear to cross
• The central refuge is a place to stop safely midway and assess when you can cross further
• Give way to cars and be alert.

If you are driving:
• Slow down and be aware
• Expect pedestrians at these crossings
• Stay alert, especially on Kenepuru Drive as it's a busy construction zone.

Poll: Should drivers retake the theory test every 10 years?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Drivers get where they need to go, but sometimes it seems that we are all abiding by different road rules (for example, the varying ways drivers indicate around a roundabout).
Do you think drivers should be required to take a quick driving theory test every 10 years?

Vote in the poll and share any road rules that you've seen bent! 😱
