Wainuiomata Shared Path Shuttles

Grace from Hutt City Council

Due to increased construction on Stage Two of the Wainuiomata Shared Path the decision was made in February by Hutt City Council and Downer to close the Wainuiomata Hill Shared Path to pedestrians and cyclists from the Pukeatua Bridge to Wainuiomata.
Low uptake of our shuttle bus service has resulted in a new timetable which will be in place from Wednesday 13 March.

New shuttle times:
8.00 am – from Wainuiomata
8.15 am – from Gracefield
8.30 am – from Wainuiomata
8.45 am – from Gracefield
3.00pm – from Wainuiomata
3.15pm – from Gracefield
3.30pm – from Wainuiomata
3.45pm – from Gracefield

Bicycles will also no longer be able to be put on the shuttle. This is because very few bikes have used this additional service in the past month.

Please note the shared path is open at the weekends and before 6am and after 4pm Monday to Friday.

Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

As reported in the Post, there’s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need 🪙💰🪙

One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.

So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?

Poll: As a customer, what do you think about automation?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Press investigates the growing reliance on your unpaid labour.

Automation (or the “unpaid shift”) is often described as efficient ... but it tends to benefit employers more than consumers.

We want to know: What do you think about automation?
Are you for, or against?
