Palliser Road resurfacing

Simone Borgstede from Wellington City Council

This is a reminder that the remaining resurfacing work on Palliser Road will be completed next week from Monday 4 May to Friday 8 May.
The work area is from the intersection of Palliser Road and Bayview Terrace, through to the intersection of Palliser Road and Roseneath Terrace.

Please ensure any vehicles parked in this area are relocated clear of the work site before work begins. If they are not moved we will have to tow them to a suitable location.

The road will be closed to through traffic between 7am and 5pm each day. Residents and tradespeople will still be able to access their properties – please follow the instructions of crew.

If you need to catch a bus, alternate routes will be in place using shuttles. More info at: www.metlink.org.nz...

Rubbish will still be collected so please put your bags out as normal.

For more information on this work, visit: wellington.govt.nz...

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

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)
.
Do you think NZ should follow suit? Vote in our poll and share your thoughts below.

Combining biking with bus travel

Sue from Brooklyn

Hi neighbours
Anyone out there who, like me, would love to bike more, but have difficulty getting their bike on the rack on the bus ? It's sometimes necessary, so as to avoid steep hills and roads where I don't feel safe.
Metlink say their drivers aren't meant to help.
