What do you you think about the closure of Hampden St?
The council is going to close Hampden St west's intersection with Waimea Rd for a year-long trial, starting in October.
Some residents of the street say they weren't made aware of the closure, others are concerned about passing traffic pressure onto other surrounding streets, and some people think the closure of one intersection isn't enough to make people safe.
