What's one highway or road that needs attention?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

We've all been on a summer roadie and experienced first-hand the state of our roads.

If you've ever been stuck in a summer traffic jam, had near-misses on dangerous turns or feared for your life on clifftops (while the car behind you is tail-gating!) - you may have an opinion on this one.

Tell us what main road or highway you think needs some serious attention across the country, and why!

Please help us create a Welcoming Plan

The Team from Whangarei District Council

How can we make Whangārei more welcoming for newcomers? Come and help us plan for this at our second community hui:

📅 Tuesday 8 April, 3:30pm until 5:30pm, at the Central Library

There will be two more opportunities to meet at the Central Library:
📅 Tuesday 10 June 2025, 3:30pm-5:30pm, and
📅 Tuesday 12 August 2025, 3:30pm-5:30pm.

“We are gathering feedback from newcomers, ethnic communities, organisations and the wider Whangārei community to help draft the Welcoming Plan,” says Council Welcoming Communities Coordinator Devika Shukla. “Your voice matters, and we want to hear your thoughts, experiences and ideas. This is a collaborative effort to create a more inclusive and supportive community for everyone.”

The interactive, all-welcome meeting will focus on building meaningful connections between newcomers and existing communities, to help form a shared sense of pride about being part of a culturally rich and vibrant community.

📸 captions: Our first hui in February was a blast and we want to get more people along to contribute. The Welcoming Plan aims to promote healthier, happier and more productive communities by welcoming newcomers and embracing their cultural needs, like what we saw at Taste Whangārei earlier this month.

We’re also running a Welcoming Plan survey and we would love to hear from more people! Do that here: www.wdc.govt.nz...
