Kia ora e te whānau. It's a good day for North Shore commuters, with the opening of the Northern Busway extension between the Albany and Constellation stations.

The new stretch of road allows southbound buses to skip the motorway near Greville Rd, where traffic usually comes to a crawl, while northbound buses no longer need to navigate the busy interchange at Constellation Drive and Upper Harbour Hwy.

“This means no time sitting at traffic lights, quicker journeys, and more consistent travel times,” Auckland Transport said.

As a semi retired driving instructor I used to own one of Auckland's well known driving schools. I am now offering people my driving lessons experience for free with all the tips and tricks on how to pass a driving test. Most parents do a great job of coaching their children but don't have the tools to get up to test standard. Tips like how to navigate roundabouts and do observation points, lane changing procedures, flush medians, merging, speed zones, how and when to do the MIB - men in black procedures etc and the list goes on.

Please Note : I am trying out this new strategy to save people heaps on driving lessons and also it's a neighbourly gesture so learners can pass their test at VTNZ and avoid critical errors.

$5.4m pipe upgrade at Takapuna Beach to prevent sewage spills

Kia ora neighbours. A $5.4 million pipe upgrade could help prevent sewage from overflowing onto Takapuna Beach.

The upgrade of the 1.6km wastewater pipe, which runs the full length of the beach, began this week and would take until around August to complete, Watercare project manager Johan Gerritsen​ said.

Recent investigations found the pipe, built in the 1940s, was in urgent need of an upgrade.

“By relining this section of the pipe we’ll extend its life by 50 years and significantly reduce wastewater overflows in the area.”

The work would be done by a self-propelling device, which spins around inside the pipe to line it with plastic.

That would eliminate the need for workers to dig trenches to get to the pipe, meaning disruption to beachgoers would be minimal, road closures unnecessary and the pipe might still be used during the project.

“It’s also faster, cheaper and has a lower carbon footprint,” Gerritsen said.
