Hi neighbours,

Are you going out of your way to collect plastic bags before they become illegal in NZ? Some Kiwis have admitted they are stockpiling bags before they can no longer get them from supermarkets and petrol stations.

It's been noticed that some customers have been taking plastic bags for things like single chocolate bars and drinks "to save up".

Do you find plastic bags handy for bin liners? What eco-friendly tips and alternatives to plastic can you share with your neighbours? Leave a reply to share your thoughts.

The latest reported incident happened on Hororata Dunsandel Rd last week. The motorist was not hurt but the cow was killed. The crashes are a “good reminder” to farmers to check their boundaries.

“With mycoplasma bovis in the district the need to run a secondary boundary fence isn’t a bad thing, especially if it’s at a gateway then that provides a double level of security,” North Canterbury Federated Farmers dairy chairman Michael Woodward said.

Selwyn District Council senior animal control officer Steve Clarke is advising people driving on rural roads to make sure they are aware of potential hazards.

If you do see farm animals on the road please report it through our 24-hour line – 347 2800
