A friendly reminder that the one hour free in the CBD parking trial ends this weekend.

Callum from Hutt City Council

From 3 April the rate in the HC2 time-restricted shopping area will revert back to the pre-trial rate of $1.50 per hour.

For the first half of April parking wardens will provide a reminder to people that may be unaware of the change. The one hour free trial was extended following the November 14 earthquake in light of shortages of city-wide parking.

All day parking rates in HC4 zones (including the Riverbank Carpark) were reduced earlier this year to 70 cents per hour, or a maximum of $4 per day.

We want to know: As the world evolves, what skills do you think give a CV the ultimate edge in a robot-filled workplace?
