Public Toilets in West Auckland or in the General Area

Matt from Henderson

Hi Everyone, is it just me or do we not provide enough toilet facilities in Auckland. Look I understand that you might to go to the council and see what they could do about it, but not sure how. Anyways, I am going to point out this because I do a part time paper - run on Lincoln Rd, Woodford, and Buscomb Ave. You could imagine me delivering my papers and walking a lot of miles. The only toilet stop I can literally think of when doing this is in Henderson, either in the Rec Centre or using the public toilets outside Pak N Save when the school holidays are on.

I am sure we can do better than this.

I also do my advertising circulars run down off Rathgar Rd during the week too, walking down Larissa ,Harrington Road and a part of Universal Dr, delivering circulars down these streets and around that area. After delivering my advertising to all the mailboxes down those areas, I do have a drink just go keep me hydrated. But after all that walking, around Rathgar Road or Swanson Rd, there is no public toilet facility for use. When I finished my advertising run for the day, I have to literally hold on to my bladder till I get home to do my business, (you all know what I mean).

I know there is one on Lincoln Road, but doing the deliveries I do during the week with my advertising run I am sure the council could provide a toilet facility on Swanson Road or on Rathgar Road somewhere.

Just a little thing to consider. It does not mean much but think of us as a wider community. When you go, you need to go.

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

DOC is rolling out a new tool to help figure out what to tackle first when it comes to protecting our threatened species and the things putting them at risk.

Why does this matter? As Nikki Macdonald from The Post points out, we’re a country with around 4,400 threatened species. With limited time and funding, conservation has always meant making tough calls about what gets attention first.

For the first time, DOC has put real numbers around what it would take to do everything needed to properly safeguard our unique natural environment. The new BioInvest tool shows the scale of the challenge: 310,177 actions across 28,007 sites.

Now that we can see the full picture, it brings the big question into focus: how much do we, as Kiwis, truly value protecting nature — and what are we prepared to invest to make it happen?

We hope this brings a smile!
