We Say/You Say: How can Wellington's bike routes be improved?

Reporter Upper Hutt Leader

Kia ora neighbours,

Wellington City Council is seeking feedback until December 14 on its bike network plan.

The plan includes finishing Tahitai, the route around Evans Bay, and The Parade upgrade in Island Bay.

They are particularly looking for opinions of young Wellingtonians to be shared in the Tamariki Zone - the Council's online space for kids under 14 to have their say on developing safe and connected biking and scooting routes around the city.

Do you or your kids love biking and know how Wellington can be improved? Share your thoughts below and don't forget to type NFP if you don't want your comment featured in the conversations section of the Upper Hutt Leader.

Upper Hutt Rates Increases.

Paul from Trentham

Please excuse if I am posting this where is shouldn't be. Admins, do remove this if its not appropriate.

I have not done anything like this before so please excuse if my wording isn't quite right.


As most of us are aware the Upper Hutt City Council have proposed to raise their Rates by near on 20% each year over the next 3 years.

If your UHCC Rates are around $2500 per year, after the 3 years of increases they will be approximately $4300 which equals an extra $35ish per week. This will not only hit homeowners, rentals, hirage of venues etc but will be impacting the community as the costs will be passed on with such large increases over a short period of time.

As I am outraged about this, I have created a petition on change.org to hopefully be able to show the council how many are not for these massive increases in a short period of time.

If you would like to support this petition please go to the link and add your voice.

Thanks in advance.

PROPHECIES OF 2024 SHOW PROMISE

Michael from Trentham

Sixteenth century prophet, Nostradamus predictions for 2024 are quite numerous and as interpreted by some are promising to come to fruition already.

Ailing Pope Francis will die or retire and be replaced as pope by an African cardinal or bishop.

Donald Trump will be elected President of USA and consequently turmoil will resume in the USA and the world.

Terrible weather and other disasters of nature will occur that will affect the world.

Conflict between nations will intensify and spill over.

King Charles will die or abdicate, Prince William will reject taking the mantle and it will be left to Prince Harry to be installed as King.

The Hurricanes will win the Super Rugby Pacifica championship and the All Blacks will have an unbeaten year under the coaching of Scot Robertson.
