Poll: Are you paying too much for parking?

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?

'You don’t have to live with this but I do,' a resident told the company

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

A Waikato man says dust from a massive chicken farm near his home has left him with a permanent lung disease, and his neighbours say they’re suffering too.

David Gibney told a resource consent hearing on Tuesday that he had “healthy lungs” before the Mainland Poultry farm was built.

All they want is a level playing field for all school students, and they’ve ridden 760km to deliver their message to MPs on the steps of Parliament.

George Fisher, 12, and Amelia Twiss, 13, came to the Waikato Times in April when they once again missed out on medals at this year’s national secondary school mountain biking competition - because they are home schooled.
