Te Huia Sunday services are ready to launch---Now operating seven days!

Brian from Mount Roskill

After four years of operating New Zealand's newest interregional public transport rail service - originally running only two trips during weekdays - Te Huia will now be travelling seven days per week between Frankton in Hamilton and the Strand in central Auckland!
From Sunday 27 July, new trip times include a 2:45pm Northbound service to Auckland, and a 6:15pm Southbound service to Hamilton on Sundays.
These exciting service improvements bring Te Huia up to a massive 30 trips per week - that's a total weekly travel distance of over 4,020km! 🤯
With massive thanks to our friends at Kiwirail and Auckland Transport, Te Huia can now access the Auckland Rail Network on Sundays, which we hope will continue to increase travel opportunities and connectivity between the Waikato region and Auckland City.

The Riddler from The Neighbourly Riddler

I'm a fruit. If you take away my first letter, I'm a crime. If you take away my first two letters, I'm an animal. If you take away my first and last letter, I'm a form of music. What am I?

Poll: Should we be giving the green light to new mining projects? 💰🌲

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Environmental Protection Authority announced this week that a proposed mine in Central Otago (near Cromwell) is about to enter its fast-track assessment process. A final decision could come within six months, and if it’s approved, construction might start as early as mid-2026.

We want to know: Should mining projects like this move ahead?

Keen to dig deeper? Mike White has the scoop.
