Would you travel to Ātiamuri for your petrol?

Ātiamuri first made a name for itself in hydro power. Now it's cheap fuel that's putting this tiny village back on the map. The small rural community on the bank of the Waikato River holds the title of cheapest place for petrol in the country, according to petrol price comparison app Gaspy.

Gull Ātiamuri – 45 kilometres north of Taupō – last week was selling 91 unleaded for $2.107 a litre. Three hours north, in central Auckland, it's 30 cents dearer. Read more

Good deed goes punished

Steph Rangi Reporter from Taupō Times

A Wharewaka Point resident has spent hundreds of dollars and hours turning a bush area at the Wharewaka Lookout into a native tree oasis. He noticed that some of the trees have been pulled out and taken away.

QUESTION: What good deed have you done for the community that ended up being vandalised?… View more

Plan ahead to stay safe and avoid delays this Labour Weekend

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The NZ Transport Agency has developed a tool that shows predicted traffic flow across popular journeys based on travel patterns from previous years. It can be found here.

The NZ Transport Agency has developed a tool that shows predicted traffic flow across popular journeys based on travel patterns from previous years. It can be found here.

Because predicted peak times can change based on incidents, weather and even driver behaviour we suggest that you check here before you leave for accurate information about current road and traffic conditions.

The holiday journeys site shows the busiest areas through Bay of Plenty and Waikato are expected to be the Kaimai Range, State Highway 2 between Paeroa and Waihi and State Highway 2 between Tauranga and Katikati, State Highway 1 north of Hamilton at Taupiri, State Highway 1 south of Cambridge at Karapiro, State Highway 2 at Maramarua and the Coromandel on State Highway 25 at Tairua and Kopu Bridge.

When driving this Labour Weekend, take care to:
- Drive to the conditions, whether it’s the weather, the time of day or amount of traffic
- Take regular breaks to stay alert and ensure fatigue doesn’t affect your driving
- Keep a safe following distance from vehicles in front so you can stop safely
- Be patient - overtaking is unlikely to make a significant difference to your journey time due to the amount of traffic expected over the weekend.
- Allow plenty of time, remember you are on holiday and avoid the need to rush
- Check your car is in good "health" before you head off.
