Hamilton City Council is asking residents what they want in the proposed Boyes Park play space. So far responses have been mixed, with some sharing ideas and others saying the city can’t afford it.

Poll: Are you a Te Huia fan?

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

All three Hamilton MPs appear to be united behind the retention of the Te Huia passenger rail service between Hamilton and Auckland, as well as potentially expanding it to Tauranga.
