Extensive summer maintenance on SH1 Transmission Gully includes resurfacing, drainage, and pavement reconstruction to prepare for winter. Night-time closures and detours via SH59, along with lane closures and reduced speed limits, are causing peak-time delays—so consider SH59 as an alternative route.
January works focus on chip sealing southbound lanes, then northbound, with pavement upgrades near Battle Hill, Rainbow Bridge, and Waitangirua. Road users should observe posted speed limits to ensure safety and prevent vehicle damage from loose chips. Maintenance is expected to continue until mid-February, weather permitting—check schedules and plan for extra travel time.

A drain camera inspection, however, identified underlying damage linked to past earthquake movement. Ageing ceramic pipes had shifted and cracked over time, creating a potential issue that had not yet surfaced.
An existing EQC (now Natural Hazards Commission) claim was still in place. We supported the owner throughout the process, gained approval, and completed the repairs without incurring additional costs.
The drainage system has now been restored and the property made secure.
Not all earthquake-related damage is immediately visible. Regular drain inspections can help identify hidden issues early.
Enviroflo provides complimentary drain checks for those seeking peace of mind.

Automation (or the “unpaid shift”) is often described as efficient ... but it tends to benefit employers more than consumers.

We’re talking tyres, paint, and agricultural chemicals — the items that aren’t always easy to dispose of.
Recently featured in The Post, this innovative business is showing how waste can be transformed into opportunity, turning what we throw away into products.
But this raises a bigger question: how do we get our waste to the right people — the ones doing the right things with it?
♻️ Do you think Auckland Council is doing enough to help households safely dispose of hard-to-recycle waste and get it back into the supply chain?
We’d love to hear your thoughts.

Good news — there are still heaps of dog-friendly walks across Auckland to explore together.
Summer in Tāmaki Makaurau; that glorious time when the barbecues fire up, jandals slap the pavement, and dogs across the region drag their humans out the door with tails wagging like wind turbines.
With the long days and warm nights rolling in, it’s prime time to explore Auckland’s incredible network of parks and trails, just don’t forget to pack the leash and the poo bags.
From 1 August 2025, Auckland’s updated dog access rules kicked in to make sure everyone – two-legged and four-legged – can enjoy our outdoor spaces safely. Most regional parks remain dog-free to protect precious native wildlife like the northern dotterel and fairy tern, but there are loads of local parks and reserves where your dog can stretch their legs off-leash. Jut remember, dogs are prohibited from sports fields and playgrounds.
So, grab the lead, some water, and your sense of adventure and hit the outdoors; your dog will love you for it.
So get out there and enjoy some of the options and remember, even when your dog’s off-leash, they must always be under control.
Check the Auckland Council website before heading out – rules differ by park. Because when everyone follows the leash laws, summer stays fun for everyone – paws, people and wildlife alike we all share the city with.
