What next for our Shared Paths network?
Come and see us this Saturday (29 April 2023) at the Whangārei Growers Market or Canopy Bridge to give your suggestions on improving walking and cycling.
Or join the 200+ people who have pinned comments all over the online map of feedback: www.wdc.govt.nz...
This isn’t just limited to walkers and cyclists – we also want to hear from walkers with pushchairs, and people who use wheelchairs, mobility scooters, skateboards, skates, scooters and e-scooters! But we're especially keen to hear from people who would use walking and cycling paths in Tikipunga.
We’d love to hear from young people and school students too, so if you know any then please encourage them to give their feedback.
We’ll be at the growers' markets from 7.30am to 9:00am and at the Canopy Bridge from 10:00am to 11.30am to hear your views. We’ll also be at the Tikipunga Markets on Sunday from 7.30am to 9.30am.
Submissions close on 12 May 2023.

Live Q&A: Garden maintenance with Crewcut
This Wednesday, we are having another Neighbourly Q&A session. This time with John Bracewell from Crewcut.
John Bracewell, former Black Caps coach turned Franchisee Development Manager and currently the face of Crewcut’s #Movember campaign, knows a thing or two about keeping the grass looking sharp—whether it’s on a cricket pitch or in your backyard!
As a seasoned Crewcut franchisee, John is excited to answer your lawn and gardening questions. After years of perfecting the greens on the field, he's ready to share tips on how to knock your garden out of the park. Let's just say he’s as passionate about lush lawns as he is about a good game of cricket!
John is happy to answer questions about lawn mowing, tree/hedge trimming, tidying your garden, ride on mowing, you name it! He'll be online on Wednesday, 27th of November to answer them all.

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?
An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.
