I've just added my comment to nzta.mysocialpinpoint.com... If you haven't done so, take a look and tell them what you think. This is what I wrote:
Johnsonville has very steep topography. The number of cycle commuters from Johnsonville is negligible. I support cyclists, having been one myself, but they are a tiny minority and usually young, very fit, and male. Cycle lanes will not get people giving up their cars. What we need is a big park-and-ride building at the mall to take up all the cars which are currently blocking local streets. Then commuters will drive down from the hills and take the bus or train.

Poll: Should our voting age be lowered to 16?

Ashleigh Ogden from Neighbourly.co.nz

On Monday, 21 November, the Supreme Court ruled that preventing 16 and 17-year-olds from voting is 'unjustified age discrimination'.

On Monday, 21 November, the Supreme Court ruled that preventing 16 and 17-year-olds from voting is 'unjustified age discrimination'.

The current age of voting is 18 in New Zealand and lobby group Make It 16 have been running a youth-led campaign advocating for the vote to be extended to our 16 and 17-year-olds.

“This is history,” said Make It 16 co-director Caeden Tipler. “Today New Zealand’s highest court has confirmed that stopping young people from voting is a breach of our human rights...The government and Parliament cannot ignore such a clear legal and moral message. They must let us vote.”

Last Thursday our charity was privileged to win the Health and Well Being category and the Supreme Award for the work that our volunteers do across the Greater Wellington region.

We are humbled to receive this award as last financial year our team of volunteers rescued and redistributed nearly 350 tons of food and over 4,000 banana boxes of the necessities of life to pass on to clients working with our partner agencies for free.

It was a nice surprise which occurred a few days after our 11th birthday.

Its amazing that our charity started in our double garage 11 years ago after being inspired by the Inside Childhood Poverty by Bryan Bruce.
