I came to Papamoa just over a year ago and find the two round-a-bouts on Tara rd and the speeds on Tara rd, Parton rd. and associated roads to be ridiculous.

(I moved from Auckland where roads are silly normally)
I just can't believe residential roads should have such high speed limits and round-a-bouts should require drivers to speed up to enter them. (Doncaster Drive is 50km/h - up from a school zone, but the round-about is 80km for Tara rd.)
The other round-a-bouts has two 50km/h feeder roads (both increasing speed metres before the intersection) and two high speed roads requiring drivers to reduce speed to bring the round-a-bouts traffic to a consistent 70km/h speed (a high speed for all except perfect driving conditions)
To make this situation worse the Domain end of Tara rd is feed by road speeds up to 110km/h and some drivers are still maintaining this speed by the second round-a-bout.
In addition to the above there are other roads in the Papamoa area which have speeds above the normally excepted residential 50km/h.
As the Council have seen fit to put a temporary 50Km/h on Tara rd. while it is used as a bypass for the Te Puke rd. road works and they have also indicated a review of speed limits in Papamoa is pending.
I feel now is a relevant time to raise a public discussion.
To this end I will set up a GROUP on Neighbourly to keep the discussion off the main feed.
Please feel free to join this GROUP for a friendly discussion on this topic.

From production to disposal, fashion retailers and upscale designers alike are rethinking the effects their fabrics have on the environment. Even though we tend to see fashion’s ecological impact as a brand focused problem, as consumers, we can play an important part in creating a path toward a sustainable, and more importantly a zero-waste future. It is as simple as changing our mind-set and being more mindful about the choices we make. All it takes is to gain a little more knowledge about the clothing we wear.
The textile industry draws significantly upon the ecosystem for the raw materials that create our fabrics, but some production processes tend to be more ‘unfriendly’ than others. The great news is that as major brands become increasingly eco-conscious, sustainability standards are also gaining traction across the industry. These standards support best practices and contribute to the emergence of organic or recycled fibre alternatives. As most of us understand the detrimental impacts that fibre production has on the environment, organic and preferred options which are more sustainably produced and far greener, are readily available.
Brands are making commitments. Big brands such as Kathmandu, H&M and Nike have pledged to achieve a 100 percent sustainable cotton production line by 2025 indicating increased accessibility to these garments. Organic and more sustainable counterparts from almost all types of natural fibres, including cotton, linen, down and wool, are becoming similarly available at retailers across the globe.
