Remember to keep cars off the beach

Nicholas Boyack Reporter from Community News

Kia ora, Porirua Neighbourly. The councl had put up signs reminding people cars are no longer allowed on Titahi Bay beach under the recently updated Porirua City Council Transport Bylaw.
There will be regular patrols by parking wardens and security contractors to enforce the bylaw. You can still drive on to the beach to launch a boat, and you can park your vehicle and trailer above the high tide line following launch.
If you own a boatshed, you can drive on to the beach to load or unload your things, but your car must then be parked on the road.
Tell us what you think of the new by-laws?

Poll: Would you commute by public transport if it was free?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Using your car is convenient, except for finding parking.

Cycling lets you leave anytime, but you might arrive soaked.

So, neighbours, if public transport had the perk of being free, would it be your main way to commute?

Poll: Does grocery bagging affect where you shop?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

There's only a few differences between our larger chain supermarkets here in New Zealand. Having someone bag your groceries is one of them.

Does having your groceries packed for you at the checkout influence where you do your grocery shop? If so, tell us why.
