New Hawke's Bay Airport entrance is open

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Access to Hawke's Bay Airport is now up and running through the new Watchman Rd entranceway off the roundabout link off State Highway 2 in Napier.

The new road opened on Monday with signage indicating the new entrance was installed. The old intersection, which had been the scene of a string of serious crashes, was tagged by the New Zealand Transport Agency as one of the region's most notorious safety blackspots. The old entrance off SH2 now has temporary speed restrictions in place as it is being disestablished.

Temporary speed limits of 50km/h are in place through the work area and motorists are asked to be patient and drive with care on the approaches.

Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.

This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.

Do you think this ban is reasonable?

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?
