Onewa Road Cameras Now Active

John Gillon from

Please be aware that the Onewa Rd transit lane cameras started issuing fines this week (from 24 May).

They are operating during the T3 periods:
* from 6:30am to 10am heading down the hill towards the city, and
* 4pm to 7pm heading up the hill towards Birkenhead.

During these hours, you could receive a $150 fine if you travel for more than 50 metres in the T3 lane when you have less than 3 people in the vehicle.
Some people have reported receiving warning letters when they did have 3 people in the car. Hopefully any issues were ironed out before fines started being issued...
Please let me know your thoughts on the cameras, and if you notice any change to general traffic, buses or driver behaviour.

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”

We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?

Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.
