Come on, Kiwis, learn the world's fastest growing sport!
Starting in March, Pickleball has come to central/western parts of Auckland city. We've got a crowd of 20 or more showing up every Friday in Mt. Albert. Now a growing collection of folks coming to Lynfield, just off White Swan Road. The game is played by all ages. The emphasis on daytime play we've been setting up is appealing to retired folks and younger adults with the flexibility of schedule to play in the late mornings. Come learn pickleball and its gentle, fun, and active nature! We play Mondays at 10:30-12:30 at the Lynfield YMCA. All equipment provided. $5 asked to help pay for court time. See pickleball-nz.seattlevet.net... for details and links to other information about the game.

So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?
-
59.3% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
25.3% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
15.4% ... It is complicated

Night-time chipsealing works on SH2
From 9 to 17 February, stop/go traffic management will be in place on SH2 between McPherson Road and Dimmock Road on multiple nights between 9pm and 5am (Sundays to Thursdays).
During the day, all lanes will be open, but speed restrictions will apply to allow the chipseal to set and to protect vehicles travelling over the newly laid surface.
There may be delays to your journey when travelling through the area. This is weather dependent so check NZTA Journey Planner before you travel.
