The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

We've launched Pulse of the Neighbourhood - a chance to share your opinion on issues impacting your community. Today we want to know a little more about how you're finding the traffic levels around you. Is your drive to work a daily ordeal - or a doddle?

Is traffic a problem in your community?

• Yes - it takes me forever to get from A to B
• Sometimes during rush hour
• No - it's smooth sailing for me
• What's traffic? I don't pass a single car on the way to work
