Poll: Do you support Auckland Transport's new paid/time restricted street parking near North Shore Hospital?
Hi neighbours. On April 4, Auckland Transport will implement changes to on-street parks surrounding North Shore Hospital.
Road users will pay $1 per hour to park on Shea Terrace, Mary Poynton Crescent and part of Northcote Road, while other street parks will be time-restricted to two hours (see map).
Auckland Transport said the changes will increase parking availability, enable parks to be shared between residents, commuters, hospital patrons and encourage the use of public transport.
We'd like to hear your thoughts: How will this affect you? Do you live on one of these roads? Are you a frequent hospital visitor who relied on free parking? [Please type 'NFP' if your comment is not for publication.]

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?
-
59.3% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
25.4% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
15.3% ... It is complicated

Night-time chipsealing works on SH2
From 9 to 17 February, stop/go traffic management will be in place on SH2 between McPherson Road and Dimmock Road on multiple nights between 9pm and 5am (Sundays to Thursdays).
During the day, all lanes will be open, but speed restrictions will apply to allow the chipseal to set and to protect vehicles travelling over the newly laid surface.
