Dunedin's main shopping street going one-way, but more needed to save retail precinct
A multimillion-dollar makeover of Dunedin’s main shopping street will restrict the street to one-way traffic only.
The Dunedin City Council voted to make George St a one-way, south-bound street as part of a project to revitalise the area.

But he acknowledged it was “no silver bullet”, and it would take more than urban design and transport changes to save the central city’s retail precinct. Read more here.
Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?
An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.
