Update on the Archers Rd/Coronation Rd intersection
Preliminary work at the Archers Rd/Coronation Rd intersection has finished and the new roundabout will be built in either early-March or during the April school holidays (dates to be confirmed). When that happens, the intersection will be closed for up to 8 days for construction.
In the meantime, you may have noticed that roundabout signs have been installed at the intersection, and that the Stop sign at the top of Archers Rd has been changed to a Give Way sign.
This is because a painted roundabout will be installed tonight (weather permitting), similar to what we've had at the Ocean View Rd/Northcote Rd intersection recently. This is a temporary measure until the real roundabout is built. Please treat it like a real roundabout.
NOTE: Photo taken before the new roundabout signs were installed.

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!
