Upkeep of our cycleways/pedestrian paths
Does the council plan to maintain the current cycle/pedestrian paths as I have noticed they are becoming neglected. The paintwork has worn away in many places and the surfaces have degraded. Some areas where plantings were introduced have grown onto the paths. Does anyone on here know if maintenance of these have been budgeted for by council? Or is this considered infrastructure as roading? Is it practical to form a volunteer group to maintain them?
Poll: Have you ever been bullied?
People associate bullying with children in schools, but it can actually stretch beyond childhood to workplaces or neighbourhoods.
This Friday is Pink Shirt Day, which began in Canada in 2007 when two students took a stand against homophobic bullying after a new student was harassed for wearing pink. People across the globe are now encouraged to wear pink on this day to take a stand against bullying and promote inclusivity.
Have you or your whānau ever experienced bullying? Share your thoughts on Pink Shirt Day below.
