Poll: Do you think Te Huia's trial should be extended?

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

The future of Hamilton’s Te Huia rail service remains uncertain, with Waikato Regional Council looking at asking for an extra year of trial time - with the same level of government funding.

Regional councillors will meet on Thursday to vote on a proposal to support, or not, sending a letter to the New Zealand Transport Agency’s (NZTA) board asking it to extend Te Huia’s five-year trial until June 30, 2027, and to maintain the NZTA’s 60% Financial Assistance Rate (FAR).

Do you think Te Huia's trial should be extended? Tell us your reasons in the comments (adding NFP if you don't want your words used in print).

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”

We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?

Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.
