You will need to follow the rules for protecting kauri if you:

- Grow kauri plants/trees
- Have kauri on your property
- Own farm animals/stock that graze in or near a kauri forest

Bearing this in mind, and the increasingly poor condition of many of our roads which require massive amounts of funding to repair, last week the transport agency announced that its He Tohu Huarahi Māori Bilingual Traffic Signs programme was going out for public consultation. If successful, it would result in destination signs, public and active transport signs, walking and cycling signs, general advisory and warning signs, plus motorway and expressway signs being replaced with bilingual versions.
