T3 Lane Cameras coming to Onewa Road
Auckland Transport are preparing to install 13 CCTV cameras on Onewa Road to allow remote monitoring of the T3 lanes during their hours of operation. The cameras will replace the need for staff to film from the side of the road.
The installation of the Onewa Road cameras will be in two phases:
* Phase 1: The first phase of the works, preparing the pole foundations and cables, is scheduled for late February 2021 and will take up to three weeks to be completed. This will involve drilling at some of the camera locations along Onewa Road.
* Phase 2: The second phase of the works, installing the poles and cameras, is scheduled to start in May 2021 and will take up to one week to be completed.
The cameras should be operational from June. For the first 3 weeks, Auckland Transport will issue warning letters to drivers who use the lane incorrectly. From July (date to be confirmed), $150 infringement fees will be issued.
Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?
As reported in the Post, there’s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need 🪙💰🪙
One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.
So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?
-
60.1% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
25.7% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
14.3% ... It is complicated

Poll: Should complete designs be shared with the public, or should the community help shape the designs from the start?
The Post recently shared an opinion piece on the Harbour Crossing and why a more democratic approach might be needed 🚗🚲👟
While most decisions sit within the political arena, many organisations—like NZTA—manage long-term projects that go beyond party lines. Politics can sometimes disrupt progress, and the next Harbour Crossing is a big decision that will affect all Aucklanders.
We’d love your thoughts: Should near-complete, shovel-ready designs be shared with the public, or should the community have a hand in shaping the designs from the start?
-
88.5% Community feedback and transparency is needed.
-
11.5% No. This would be impossible in practice.
