Speed limit of 50kph on Transmission Gully link roads to be reassessed

Reporter Community News

There is a move to change speed limits on roads connecting with Transmission Gully.
At present, motorists have to shift from the 100kph limit on the newly opened $1.25 billion stretch of State Highway 1 to 50kph on Te Ara Kāpehu and the Waitangirua Link Road.
Do you support changing the limits? Please tell us what you thing and remember if you do not want your comments used by Stuff, please put NFP.

Poll: How important is the ability to book a doctor’s appointment online?

The Doctors

Hi Neighbours
Here at The Doctors we would love to hear how you prefer to book your doctor’s appointments. With busy schedules, different people find different methods easier.

For some, online booking is very convenient, you can make an appointment anytime without needing to wait on the phone. Others still prefer calling the clinic and speaking to a real person, especially if they have specific questions about their visit.

Your feedback helps us understand what works best for our patients and how we can improve access to care.

Poll: Should we ditch daylight saving? 🕰️

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

First introduced in New Zealand in 1927 with the passing of the Summer Time Act, it's what we know as 'Daylight Saving' and this year it ends on the first Sunday in April.

While we do get to sleep in this time around, some people would like to scrap the clock tinkering for good.

And why? Some evidence suggests the time changes are bad for our health as they mess with sleep patterns leading to short-term fatigue and affecting mood. Meanwhile the hour change is frustrating for farmers and a nightmare for getting the littlies to sleep. But what's your take?
