Poll: Do you live in or near Kihikihi? What do you think?

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

While some reckon Kihikihi’s new cycleway has made the streets safer, others believe it’s been a “terrible” waste of $7.2 million.

The project saw various traffic calming measures installed, along with a two-lane cycleway like a mini road separated from the main drag on Whitmore St by a grass verge.

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”

We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?

Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.
