Traffic choke points in city

Matt Bowen Reporter from Waikato Times

Four Hamilton "choke points" are in the sights of a city councillor who says the traffic flow needs to be fixed.

Afternoon everyone,

Four Hamilton "choke points" are in the sights of a city councillor who says the traffic flow needs to be fixed.

And council experts agree that growth is putting more pressure on Hamilton roads than ever before.

Are there any intersections or roundabouts that really grind your gears? Also, are there any other traffic/driving/etiquette related gripes that you'd like to share?

We're hoping to get an idea of what really gets up the noses of city drivers.

NOTE: Add NFP to your comment if you do not want to be quoted in any follow up articles on the topic.

Abit chipped and scraped here and there and some of the wooden cars and trains are starting to fade, but still good playable condition. The top turns over and is plain green on the other side. I did have plans for painting a street map for just cars on it, but never got around to it. Comes with what you can see, and a few more pieces of curved track. The red train engine needs to be glued back together (cab part has come away from front section)

Price: $30

New pumps improve western water supply

The Team from Hamilton City Council

Just a heads-up that some homes in the Dinsdale/Nawton area may have some water pressure fluctuations in the next few days as we install new pumps at the Dinsdale reservoir. The work will improve consistency of supply for around 2000 homes, and we are replacing the two existing pumps with three, … View moreJust a heads-up that some homes in the Dinsdale/Nawton area may have some water pressure fluctuations in the next few days as we install new pumps at the Dinsdale reservoir. The work will improve consistency of supply for around 2000 homes, and we are replacing the two existing pumps with three, which means we will have better resilience in the network.

As we connect the new pumps to the network and flush the pipes there may be ‘sputtering’ of taps or the water may look a little cloudy as air works through the system.
