Investors sought to help make Porirua Adventure Park's gondola a reality
Would you invest in the Porirua Adventure Park?
The long-awaited Porirua Adventure Park project is overcoming the Covid-19-inflicted jitters plaguing the tourism sector, and is back on track after attracting fresh capital.

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.
