Napier/Hasting traffic delays

Clare from Napier South

Hi there. My son in law is working for a transport firm. They are encountering huge delays getting goods over to Napier. What that means is our goods are going to get much much dearer!!!!

ONE SOLUTION.
If you work and live in two different cities, please look into staying with family members in your city of work.. WE HAVE TO EASE THE CONGESTION SO THAT AMBULANCES AND VITAL WORKERS (AS WELL AS GOODS VEHICLES) CAN MAKE IT ACROSS IN A TIMELY MANNER.

To those WHO HAVE A SPARE ROOM. please consider opening it up for a reasonable price to those working in a different city to where they live.

THIS PROBLEM IS LONG TERM SO LETS ALL THINK OF SOLUTIONS.

Once prices go up, they likely won't come back down again.

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.

When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
