HUMAN ROAD BLOCKS Birkdale / Salisbury Rd intersection

Greg from Birkdale

AT INTENDS TO USE THE THE RESIDENTS / ROAD USERS OF SALISBURY ROAD AS HUMAN ROAD BLOCKS.

From AT re Birkdale / Salisbury Rd intersection.

“Lane capacity on Birkdale and Salisbury – the kerb buildouts on Birkdale Road opposite Salisbury Road reinforce broken yellow lines on Birkdale Road and stops vehicles from undertaking vehicles turning right into Salsibury Road. This is designed to slow operating speeds approaching the school crossing on Birkdale Road and increase intersection safety.”

SO WHEN YOU ARE WAITING TO TURN RIGHT INTO SALISBURY RD, VEHICLES CAN NOT PASS – SO BACK UP BEHIND YOU. NOW WE, AND THOSE WAITING BEHIND US, HAVE THE GREATLY INCREASED RISK OF BEING CRASHED INTO FROM THOSE COMING DOWN BIRKDALE ROAD!! BEING USED AS A HUMAN SPEED REDUCING ROAD BLOCK.

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.

Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.

Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?

Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
