Have Your Say
Twelve months ago we made big changes to the Metlink bus network. We’d like to hear from customers in the Eastern suburbs as to how their routes are working for them a year on and what changes they’d like to see.
We realise there’s still some frustration with issues in parts of the network, but the more detailed feedback we get from you, the better we’re able to address those problems.

DOC is rolling out a new tool to help figure out what to tackle first when it comes to protecting our threatened species and the things putting them at risk.
Why does this matter? As Nikki Macdonald from The Post points out, we’re a country with around 4,400 threatened species. With limited time and funding, conservation has always meant making tough calls about what gets attention first.
For the first time, DOC has put real numbers around what it would take to do everything needed to properly safeguard our unique natural environment. The new BioInvest tool shows the scale of the challenge: 310,177 actions across 28,007 sites.
Now that we can see the full picture, it brings the big question into focus: how much do we, as Kiwis, truly value protecting nature — and what are we prepared to invest to make it happen?
We hope this brings a smile!
