Did the government make the right call over Rocks Rd?

Amy Ridout Reporter from The Nelson Mail

The Government's 10-year includes funding the long-awaited Hope Bypass. However, it doesn't include Rocks Rd, which, under a Labour government plan, was set for improvements including a widened walking and cycling boulevard.

While Labour MP Rachel Boyack has said the road is in "dire need of some love," Nelson's mayor Nick Smith said addressing Rocks Rd was "challenging", and a "distant dream".

What do you think? Was it the right call?

Some Choice News!

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.

Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.

Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?

Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
