Have you been issued a ticket at the Albany bus station?

Elesha Gordon Reporter from North Shore Times

More than 490 infringements have been issued since unpopular parking charges were introduced near a congested bus station.

In February, Auckland Transport installed paid parking near Albany bus station on the North Shore in its efforts to curb poor and illegal parking aggravated by an overflowing park and ride.

Auckland Transport (AT) introduced the charges to help manage on-street parking in the town centre, which was near-capacity.

However, of the 1258 public submissions received on the paid parking zone, 85 per cent were opposed. Read more.

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

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)
.
