Call for action over deadly Upper Hutt road

Reporter Community News

It’s a disgrace that nearly 50 people have died on a 20-kilometre stretch of State Highway 2 in Upper Hutt, the city’s mayor says.
Wayne Guppy wants something done about the road, on which 48 people have died since 1987.
Do you use the road and is it as dangerous as the mayor claims?
Remutaka MP Chris Hipkins​ said he’d long had concerns over the road and believes road should be two lanes in either direction.

🪱🐦 When are you the most productive? 🌙🦉

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Post has been diving into our daily habits, and research suggests being an early bird or a night owl isn’t just a choice—it’s biology! We all have that specific time when our brains finally "click" into gear.

This raises a big question for the modern workplace. To get the best out of everyone, should employers accommodate our natural body clocks? This idea is at the heart of the four-day work week and flexible scheduling movements.

We want to hear from you:
1. When does your brain "click" into gear?
2. Would a flexible (or shortened) schedule change the way you work?
