Cyclists will have additional spots to lock up their bikes with new facilities installed as part of a cycleway trial.

Project WAVE is a $1 million cycleway trial in the Viaduct Harbour to connect the Quay and Nelson Street cycleways that could have over a thousand daily users.

Auckland Transport (AT) confirmed two new bike parking facilities able to accommodate 16 bikes have been installed as part of the trial, taking the total number of bike parks along the cycleway to 56.

The project is opposed by a group of residents and business owners.

The two new bike parking facilities are located on Customs Street West between Market Place and Lower Hobson Street. One is located near the Tepid Baths, and one is near O’Hagan’s bar.

The area now has enough space for around 56 bikes, as there were already existing facilities to accommodate 40 bikes before Project WAVE was implemented.

AT spokeswoman Natalie Polley said there are also numerous new bike parking facilities on Quay Street and in the new square as part of the Downtown project.

"That doesn’t even take into account bike parking at the ferry terminal, the AT Downtown Carpark and at many other locations on the Viaduct,” she said.

Kia ora neighbours,

An Auckland landlord verbally abused his tenant and accused her of being a sex worker, a tribunal has found.

Landlord James Francis was ordered by the Tenancy Tribunal to pay $1520 to the woman for breaching her quiet enjoyment of the property and failing to have a tenancy agreement in writing.

The woman lived at a rental property in Waimauku in Auckland’s northwest, and Francis had a separate house on the same property.

Francis kept an eye on when the tenant left the house and had CCTV which he used to watch her movements, the tribunal heard.

Have you ever had a nightmare landlord or tenant?

Two bus services being trialled in Rodney have proved successful.

Auckland Transport (AT) has confirmed it will fund Route 126 (between Westgate and Coatesville) and Route 998 (Wellsford to Warkworth) from May, 2022.

Both runs are meeting patronage targets, AT said.

The services are part of a programme of transport improvements funded by the Rodney Local Board Transport Targeted Rate.

The programme features more than $40 million of improvements in the Rodney district including new footpaths, bus stops and extra buses.

Rodney Local Board chair Phelan Pirrie said the board was glad to be able to keep investing in transport during a difficult time.

“It was a tough call for the local board to set up this targeted rate and to focus on new bus services. But the community consistently told us that local transport infrastructure and services are important to them - so we’re glad to be able to deliver on our promises.”
