The crossing is only for business purposes or essential personal travel - such as childcare or caring for animals. What do you think: should a travel corridor be set up across Auckland so people can traverse the level 4 city?

Southland father and son, Robert and Bobby Baird have recently received their forestry qualifications, proving you are never too old to learn.
While Robert has practical experience gained during four decades in the bush, he says vocational training like the qualification he has just done is helping keep people safe.
Competenz assessor Neville Muir worked with Bairds throughout their training programme.
“Bobby is very driven to succeed and very organised. He’s also very keen to continue upskilling his crew and there are a lot of different certificates still to do,” he says.
While Bobby is his boss at work, Robert turns back into ‘dad’ at the end of the day. “I give him a hand during the day when he’s got a lot of work on. We have a great relationship and it’s a magic thing to be able to do to work with your son.”

I’m so appreciative of the Cancer Society’s support and incredibly passionate about the research they fund. I hope by leaving a bequest, this will help cancer researchers find a cure.”
You can join Tanya in making the greatest gift of hope for those facing cancer in the future.
