Hedge trimming needed

Alesha from Saint Andrews

Hi, I was about to rent a hedge trimmer from hire pool for a quick job and saw there pricing! I realised it might be a better idea to see if anyone owns a trimmer and would like to do the job for the $50 I was going to spend renting it. It’s only a few camellia bushes that need a tidy up and … View moreHi, I was about to rent a hedge trimmer from hire pool for a quick job and saw there pricing! I realised it might be a better idea to see if anyone owns a trimmer and would like to do the job for the $50 I was going to spend renting it. It’s only a few camellia bushes that need a tidy up and figured the money is better in someone’s pocket rather than a big franchise.

Here’s the bushes that need trimming. Ignore the lawns we’re mowing them tomorrow 😂 also open to borrowing someone’s trimmer if they’re happy to lend!

We’re in Saint Andrews (neighbourly hasn’t updated my address.)

A pinch-point roundabout in Hillcrest, Hamilton, is being replaced with traffic lights in a bid to improve traffic flow.

It's the intersection of State Highway 1C Cobham Drive and Cambridge Road and work will start on January 4 2023.

It's expected to take about six months, Waka Kotahi NZ Transport Agency said.

“The current roundabout is a pinch point for Hamilton, particularly for people travelling between the central city and Cambridge, and with increasing traffic volumes and flows, it is no longer fit for purpose,” regional manager for infrastructure delivery Jo Wilton said.
