Traffic choke points in city
Afternoon everyone,
Four Hamilton "choke points" are in the sights of a city councillor who says the traffic flow needs to be fixed.
And council experts agree that growth is putting more pressure on Hamilton roads than ever before.
Are there any intersections or roundabouts that really grind your gears? Also, are there any other traffic/driving/etiquette related gripes that you'd like to share?
We're hoping to get an idea of what really gets up the noses of city drivers.

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.

What would you do if it was your job to fix Hamilton's CBD?
More alcohol restrictions, more lighting, busking rule changes and a whole lot of lobbying - these are some ways Hamilton leaders want to sort out the CBD.
Crime and anti-social behaviour in the area has been in the spotlight after recent news of a man defecating in the street near a city pub and another who flipped tables out the back of a bar after being found scrounging cigarette butts and asked to leave.

Computer Help.
My favourite computer people, PC Heroes, seem to have disappeared? Can anyone suggest a business that can come and go over our devices updating as necessary?
