Let's get J'ville moving?
I've just added my comment to nzta.mysocialpinpoint.com... If you haven't done so, take a look and tell them what you think. This is what I wrote:
Johnsonville has very steep topography. The number of cycle commuters from Johnsonville is negligible. I support cyclists, having been one myself, but they are a tiny minority and usually young, very fit, and male. Cycle lanes will not get people giving up their cars. What we need is a big park-and-ride building at the mall to take up all the cars which are currently blocking local streets. Then commuters will drive down from the hills and take the bus or train.
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.
