HCC want to remove trees in Howell Ave that were agreed to be retained!
Roadworks are underway for the Te Awa cycleway down the North end of Howell Ave right now. The HCC, Te Awa cycle Trust and residents directly affected all agreed that the 4 trees along the section between 97 Howell and down are to be retained.
( Please see the attached HCC plan given to the residents dated 2 September 2021 saying the trees are being retained.)
Why have the HCC reverted back to their original plan to remove the trees now that construction is happening and not honouring the agreed upon plan.
Please HCC honour your published plan!!

What do you think will change once Hamilton overtakes the capital?
How long it’ll take depends on who you ask and you can measure it in years, elections, or Rugby world cups.
But Hamilton City will eventually be home to more people than Wellington City - likely in somewhere between 24 or 34 years according to Statistics NZ and Waikato University.
What do you think will change once Hamilton overtakes the capital? Tell us your reasons in the comments (adding NFP if you don't want your words used in print).
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)
.
