Bus Routes Workshop - organised by Spreydon-Cashmere Community Board

Julie Tobbell from Somerfield Residents Association

A reminder about the Bus Routes Workshop tomorrow (Monday) from 5- 6.30pm in the Board Room at Beckenham Service Centre.
If anyone wishes to join me to help represent SRA & our Somerfield Residents (who have made it very clear that removing our bus services & routes in 2015 was not well received by many)- Please let me know via message / email.
For any other communities /individuals wishing to also attend please RSVP to Faye Collins at the Beckenham Service Centre (Ph: 941 5108).
Somerfield & Selwyn Streets have always had a good bus service for over approx. 50 yrs until the route became changed to No: 114 - & as this was not a useful route for many - our area evidently & unfortunately lost it's bus service altogether!
Hopefully many of our local areas may be able to improve our current bus services via this workshop & also by SRA presenting our petition of over 400 signatures at the appropriate time!

Thanks to the Spreydon-Cashmere Community Board for enabling our communities to join together with ECan staff to try to resolve some of our bus service concerns.
We will keep everyone posted after the workshop otherwise!

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Reserve Bank has shared some pretty blunt advice: there’s no such thing as a “safe” job anymore 🛟😑

Robots are stepping into repetitive roles in factories, plants and warehouses. AI is taking care of the admin tasks that once filled many mid-level office jobs.

We want to know: As the world evolves, what skills do you think give a CV the ultimate edge in a robot-filled workplace?
