Do you favour reducing the speed limit?

Reporter Community News

Do you support reducing the speed limit between Ōtaki and Levin.
Locals are being asked to have their say on roading improvements and speed limits between Ōtaki and Levin.
Between 2016 and 2020, seven people lost their lives and 28 people were seriously injured on SH1 between Ōtaki and Levin.
Waka Kotahi is planning a combination of safety improvements to SH1, including painted wide centre lines, side and median barriers, three new turnaround locations and a new roundabout at the SH1/SH57 intersection. It is also asking for feedback on the speed limit.
Tell us what you think and if you do not want your comments used by Stuff, please put NFP.

Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.

This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.

Do you think this ban is reasonable?

Art and Craft Market at Kai Tahi - 10 till 3 EVERY SUNDAY!

Nicola from Papakowhai

Hi neighbours

The new Porirua Community Art and Craft market at Kai Tahi in Porirua is now running EVERY Sunday. It's all indoors, and there's over 30 stalls each week.

Opens at 10am and closes 3pm, so you can also grab lunch at the many international food court options. Bring the kids, and your dog on a lead is welcome too!

Parking at the back (on harbour edge) is free - just stay clear of the Staff Only parks.
