Light Brigade To The Rescue
UHCC recognises the issue ( good) and has the answer (bad).
The railway crossing south of UH rail station coupled with the four directional roundabout a few metres east is causing traffic congestion all round and the situation will simply get much worse with increase rail transport and much increased traffic.
The most obvious solution is a vehicular underpass (such as the one created south of Silverstream rail station many years ago) or an over head vehicular bridge.
But no. UHCC see resolving the situation is in removing the round about and in its place installing a set of traffic lights.
While this will go a little way towards some alleviation of the traffic snarl, it does nothing to address the lines of traffic held back by wooden arms waiting for trains to go from either direction at a greatly increased frequency.
But to the person who screamed that the UHCC would not do anything, I guess that person is mistaken.
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)
.
