Have your say on Our City Tomorrow!

Lessi Riccio from Wellington City Council

We are now LIVE with three exciting plans, alongside Let's Get Wellington Moving, that will transform how we live, invigorate our city, and create attractive transport choices that help to reduce our carbon emissions.

Consultations are now open, so have your say on Our City Tomorrow!

⭐ Let’s Get Wellington Moving – Mass Rapid Transit: Public transport that moves more people, more conveniently and comfortably.

⭐ Paneke Pōneke – Bike Network Plan: Our goal is to be a city where it’s easy for people of all ages and abilities to choose low or zero carbon transport options. Creating a connected bike network in tandem with big public transport improvements will make that possible.

⭐ Draft District Plan: The District Plan is the city’s planning rule book. It addresses key issues through new planning settings such as controls for quality housing, enabling development and protecting the city’s natural environment.

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?
