Poll: Do you think Te Huia's trial should be extended?
The future of Hamilton’s Te Huia rail service remains uncertain, with Waikato Regional Council looking at asking for an extra year of trial time - with the same level of government funding.
Regional councillors will meet on Thursday to vote on a proposal to support, or not, sending a letter to the New Zealand Transport Agency’s (NZTA) board asking it to extend Te Huia’s five-year trial until June 30, 2027, and to maintain the NZTA’s 60% Financial Assistance Rate (FAR).

Whether it’s a courgette takeover or a feijoa frenzy, don’t let those garden gems go to waste!
Our suggestion to you: Did you know you can grate and freeze excess courgettes to use in chocolate cake later? It sounds a bit dodgy, but it makes the cake incredibly moist ... and hey, it counts as a serving of veg, right? 🍫
