New Bus Depot off Miramar Ave
There is a resource application to put a new bus depot by Burnham Wharf, just past the corner of Miramar Ave, in Shelley Bay Road. (Replacing the Kilbirnie/Lyall Bay depot.)
With reducing the speed on Cobham Drive, putting in a pedestrian crossing, allowing the development of Shelley Bay and now 120 buses + 80+ cars - Cobham Drive/Miramar Ave is going to grind to a halt. Once a new movie gets going that area is going to be diabolical.
They also want to have a diesel storage area. It's right by where they unload the aviation fuel from the ships = talk about a recipe for a big bang.
Anyway the proposal is here

with links to various noise, traffic, environmental reports etc.
Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
