What you need to know:
- MetService has issued a strong wind warning for the Auckland region.
- Wind warning on Auckland Harbour Bridge today with strong wind gusts from now until early afternoon (approximately 1pm).
- In preparation the lanes on the Harbour Bridge will be in 4 x 4 formation mid morning, and remain in place until the warning has been lifted.
- There will be speed and lane restrictions in place. Motorists are urged to drive to the conditions and look out for the electronic message boards which will indicate lane closures or full closures (depending on wind thresholds) and reduced speeds, and stay within their lane while travelling across the bridge.
- Drivers of high sided vehicles and motorcyclists are advised to avoid the Auckland Harbour Bridge today and use the western ring route on State Highways 16 and 18. NZTA recommends motorists use the western ring route where possible.
NZTA thanks road users for their patience and understanding. You can keep up to date with traffic updates here.

Day Pass Tickets are available - $30 Adult pass for the ENTIRE DAY – roam all over, feast on this, that – maybe a bit of that (I only got hold of the Programme Book last night – 294 pages!!!)
So check it out – bunch of awesomness – FEAST of different sounds, styles, culture, *people* - nau mai, haere mai to our guests, vistors
Now sharing this for YOU all (been asking people, days, weeks, months – “did you know” = NO) – understand there was recent media – the Herald, the Listener – still, I ask "did you know" "have you heard" - "NO"

My/our choir – All Together Now – are performing at Auckland Town Hall on Friday night, and at Aotea Centre on Saturday morning, not worried about these –
what I am concerned about is our FRIENDSHIP CONCERT – Tomorrow/Today – depends on *when* you are reading this.
"Friendship concerts take place all over Tāmaki Makaurau! Choirs from around the world share their songs with the local community in some of our iconic cultural institutions, vibrant neighbourhood arts centres, inner city spaces, historic churches, botanic gardens, and even at a beachside art gallery."
"Free*, informal and fun each hour-long concert features three or four choirs singing a diverse range of musical styles in intimate and epic settings. "
These are supposed to be FREE – ours is, well it’s at MOTAT –(NOT the main site – the Aviation Hall, 98 Motions Rd, Western Springs) -
FREE for Seniors/Gold Card - adults, $19 - everyone else - students, children, overseas seniors $10 (this is ENTRY to MOTAT - needed for this venue)
Not much of a “friendly” KIWI greetings to world, to the *people* in these international choirs – FIRST DAY of ‘games’. Their FIRST experience – singing in a – vast, cold EMPTY space…
("who is going to be there" we asked, friends & family, & “whoever will be at MOTAT on the day” – IF they even know about this…. )
So – if you are free tomorrow – we would LOVE to see you –
Super Gold card members – IS FREE – for you –
Adults - $19 – (bargain!) – children/students/overseas seniors - $10
Again – KIWI SENIORS – FREE –
