Schools

Cheryl from Massey

Why do the primary and secondary schools still have school until December 14? They basically do nothing but sing and dance during the last 2weeks.

Is it chill time to celebrate a good school year?

Or because parents are still at work?

We’ve had hundreds of you tell us just what makes your neighbour ‘awesome’ with some amazing stories. Do you have an awesome neighbour you haven’t told us about?

It could be a neighbour who donates time to a sports team in your neighbourhood or someone who brings your bins up the driveway every week. Maybe they’re just really unique; the neighbour who drives that bright pink car or skateboards with the kids to school each day.

Tell us why your neighbour is awesome and you could win one of four $250 Prezzy® cards (plus one for your Awesome Neighbour).

TO ALL SH16 ROAD USERS - recently caught up in traffic on the way to work.

Warwick from Muriwai

For those not aware - There is a local PETITION titled:
NZTA: COMPLETE FOUR LANE SECTIONS ON SH16 on website: CHANGE. ORG
. The aim is to attempt to influence NZTA to reduce present and future congestion with 1700 supporters having joined the petition in a month.
To give you a visual of these numbers, IMAGINE each petitioner as the driver of a car in a single lane of queued vehicles and they are leaving the traffic signals in Kumeu.
With about 143 vehicles make a km queue – the front car in the queue will have passed the LINCOLN ROAD ONRAMP en-route to Auckland.

For the petition to get to the NZTA HQ’ in Auckland, we would appreciate more locals joining and sharing with any Organisation, local group, or friends you know may be users of SH16 and may wish to support us. The petition link is:

www.change.org...


Don't just express concern on social media. Do something and click on the above link to join the team.

In short; NZTA have a proposed SH16 Road Safety Project, which is expected to be completed by 2021. This includes a SH16 widening to four lanes from the NW M/Way to the Taupaki Interchange and a two-lane Roundabout at the intersection of Riverhead-Coatesville with SH16. There are numerous safety improvements between there and Waimauku, but this does little to resolve the congestion along that area.

Between Kumeu and Taupaki – 2.5 km’s of SH16 will remain 2 laned. NZTA have no current plans to widen this section of road and with the BYPASS not being commenced before the early 2030’s, residents can either accept what NZTA advises, or make their voices count. 1700 are asking NZTA to reconsider integrating the widening of the 2.5km stretch of roadway into the new project which is due for the 2021 completion.
Hopefully you may wish to join us.
Cheers
Warwick Peterson
