Poll: A monorail from Richmond to Nelson?

Carly Gooch Reporter from The Nelson Mail

A Nelson man is drawing up plans to take to the New Zealand Transport Agency for a monorail from Richmond to Nelson's CBD instead of the Southern Link.
Would you use it? How much would you pay for a round trip on the Monorail? Does Nelson's infrastructure support this mode of transport?
We'd love to read your views, so let us know in the comments below.

Some Choice News!

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

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!
