Build the Path

Rebecca from Carterton District

This isn't about South Wairarapa, but please read on, as it is important, and will be an asset to us all.

New Zealand Transport Authority is planning on a new route from Ashhurst to Woodville now that the Gorge is deems to unsafe. We have been given till THURSDAY AT 4PM to have submissions in to include a walkway/cycleway/horse bridal path to be added during original construction. It makes so much sense to build it during the initial construction phase and it opens up fabulous country for recreational pursuits, a facility sorely needed in this region.

I am asking you to PLEASE click on the link below and make a submission. Even if you don't visit this area now, it will be there for generations to come. It is a fabulous opportunity to create a versitile recreational asset.

Please act on this now.

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”

We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?

Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.

Hairdresser

Philip from Carterton District

New to Carterton, been here a month and love it people are so much more friendly than the city where we came from. In need of a good hairdresser not too expensive. Any recommendations.
