SH1 St Andrews Road Plimmerton traffic control
I would like to hear from people who are also disturbed by heavy traffice speeding through Plimmerton. The trucks and heavy vehicles which should be in the centre lane are often roaring through on the curbside lane hitting storm water grates which makes the loudist rattle and shake including vibrations. My house is 1 car length from the road and is subjected to extreme disturbing reckless behaviour from the drivers who continue to use the wrong lane. Recently more people have said they can hear the trucks air brakes from as far away as Plimmerton Boating club especially at night in the small hours disturbing sleep.
Anyone else have any issues with traffice management along St Andrews Road thats from Plimmerton Roundabout to Goat point which is just before Z Mana.
Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
