Sink Hole at Lynn Reserve
A deep sinkhole appeared in Lynn Reserve, Bayview, over the weekend close to part of the learn-to-ride circuit. It was spotted and reported by a local resident out walking her dog. Council fenced off the site and are investigating the cause. Preliminary inspection indicates that the sinkhole occurred on top of a large corrugated iron pipe which is showing incorrectly in Council's system as a concrete pipe. CCTV inspections are underway.
Please take care in the area and don't go through the fence.
Here is a photo montage supplied by the contractor.
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)
