Road works - Iver Trask Place from 15 January
Kia ora Kāpiti. Our contractors will be working soon on the footpath and kerb and channel by the Amohia stormwater project yard on Iver Trask Place. To allow this work to happen safely, Iver Trask Place will be down to one-way for traffic from Monday 15 January, for up to three weeks.
This means...
🚧 Traffic from Rimu Road can access Iver Trask Place as normal, and exit either back onto Rimu Road or to Ngahina Street and Brett Ambler Way.
🚧 Traffic entering Iver Trask Place from Ngahina Street or Brett Ambler Way will not be able to travel through to Rimu Road.
🚧 During this time if you wish to park right in front of the Paraparaumu Library or Council's Civic Building, please enter from Rimu Road.
Visit www.kapiticoast.govt.nz... for more information on the project.
Poll: Are you still heading to your local for your caffeine fix, or has the $$ changed your habits? ☕
Wellington’s identity is built on its cafe culture, but with costs climbing, that culture is under pressure. We’ve seen the headlines about recent closures, and it’s a tough pill to swallow along with a $6+ coffee.
We all want our favourite spots to stay open, but we also have to balance our own budgets ⚖️
We want to know: How are you handling the "coffee math" in 2026? Are you still heading to your local for a chat and a caffeine fix, or has the cost of living changed your habits?
Keen to read more about "coffee math"? The Post has you covered.
