Roading change to Rangiora Ave
WCC consultation process for Plan 45 is very concerning for both Sovereign Point and Rangiora Avenue owners. Submissions close 15 December
Essentially, as part of LGWM - Council are proposing to put up a median strip along the length of the Hutt Road to create new bus lanes on either side of the road prohibiting traffic from turning right to the City at the bottom of our street and forcing -
1. All Sovereign and Rangiora traffic to turn left, drive back towards Johnsonville and then execute a tricky U - turn in to what will now be one lane of condensed car traffic and
2. Forcing all traffic from Ngaranga Gorge coming down the Hutt Road into one lane and similarly forcing Onslow Road traffic to merge in the condensed one lane and also for traffic at the bottom of Kaiwharawhara Road.
If you feel strongly on the issue - why don't you -
Contact your local Councillor - Dianne Calvert
Write a letter to The Post Editor

Put in a submission on the form under "documents" in the proposal.

⚠️ DOGS DIE IN HOT CARS. If you love them, don't leave them. ⚠️
It's a message we share time and time again, and this year, we're calling on you to help us spread that message further.
Did you know that calls to SPCA about dogs left inside hot cars made up a whopping 11% of all welfare calls last summer? This is a completely preventable issue, and one which is causing hundreds of dogs (often loved pets) to suffer.
Here are some quick facts to share with the dog owners in your life:
👉 The temperature inside a car can heat to over 50°C in less than 15 minutes.
👉 Parking in the shade and cracking windows does little to help on a warm day. Dogs rely on panting to keep cool, which they can't do in a hot car.
👉 This puts dogs at a high risk of heatstroke - a serious condition for dogs, with a mortality rate between 39%-50%.
👉 It is an offence under the Animal Welfare Act to leave a dog in a hot vehicle if they are showing signs of heat stress. You can be fined, and prosecuted.
SPCA has created downloadable resources to help you spread the message even further. Posters, a flyer, and a social media tile can be downloaded from our website here: www.spca.nz...
We encourage you to use these - and ask your local businesses to display the posters if they can. Flyers can be kept in your car and handed out as needed.
This is a community problem, and one we cannot solve alone. Help us to prevent more tragedies this summer by sharing this post.
On behalf of the animals - thank you ❤️
