Gibbons Street wastewater pipe project
From today, the Gibbons Street/SH2 roundabout will be partially closed. This means that traffic heading to SH2 will be diverted via Victoria Street and Pine Avenue, around the northeast side of the roundabout.
All traffic exiting off SH2 into Gibbons Street will be diverted at the roundabout to left-turn only into Riverbank Street and back to Gibbons Street via Pine Avenue and either Victoria Street or McParland Street.
See image below.
All shops are operating as usual, and access to shops on Gibbons St is still available by following the below alternative route (turning down Victoria St or McParland St).
Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
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)
