Gibbons Street wastewater pipe project
From today, the Gibbons Street/SH2 roundabout will be partially closed. This means that traffic heading to SH2 will be diverted via Victoria Street and Pine Avenue, around the northeast side of the roundabout.
All traffic exiting off SH2 into Gibbons Street will be diverted at the roundabout to left-turn only into Riverbank Street and back to Gibbons Street via Pine Avenue and either Victoria Street or McParland Street.
See image below.
All shops are operating as usual, and access to shops on Gibbons St is still available by following the below alternative route (turning down Victoria St or McParland St).
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.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?
An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.
When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
