Cost of living has been on our minds lately, and one cost often lamented in our office is parking.

We all know that New Zealanders pay high parking fees! But research shows that the cost is driven by factors such as location, quality, and convenience.
The average daily parking fee being paid in CBDs:
$39.53 in Auckland,
$37.83 in Wellington,
and $32.60 in Christchurch.
But again, the range is wild! Aucklanders could be paying anything from $12 to $80, Wellingtonians from $15 to $50, and if you are in Christchurch, you are looking at $10 to $98.
Neighbours, we want to know: How much are you paying for daily parking fees?
Do you have any tips on how to find cheaper parks?
From July 2025, access to Te Onewa Pā at Stokes Point Reserve will be closed until early 2026 due to essential maintenance on the underside of SH1 Auckland Harbour Bridge. Visit the NZTA website to find out how you might be affected.

The diary of his stay in Auckland in early 1859 has recently been discovered, transcribed and translated. Known as the ‘Father of New Zealand geology’, Hochstetter (1829-1884) is best known for his wonderful map of Auckland’s volcanoes.
In addition to his geological, botanical, zoological and ethnological observations, his diary documents the weather, the people he met and the places he went prior to his major expedition on foot through the centre of the North Island.
Alfred Buckland, the owner of Highwic, was among the prominent political and society figures he met at the time. Hochstetter stayed with him on several occasions, and together they undertook a three-day trip on horseback.
When: Saturday 23 August
Time: 2pm
Cost: Normal entry (Free for HNZPT Members, Adults $10, Children free)
