Poll: Do you think we need an additional road crossing?

Caryn Wilkinson Reporter from Community News

It will cost at least $1 million to fix the Auckland Harbour Bridge, Waka Kotahi NZ Transport Agency estimates.

A truck was blown into a steel support truss and led to lane closures, prompting renewed calls for an additional crossing.

Stuff earlier reported transport officials want a $5 billion rail tunnel under the Auckland harbour a decade before any additional road link, according to new council documents.

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.

Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.

Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?

Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
