Kia ora neighbours,

An Auckland landlord verbally abused his tenant and accused her of being a sex worker, a tribunal has found.

Landlord James Francis was ordered by the Tenancy Tribunal to pay $1520 to the woman for breaching her quiet enjoyment of the property and failing to have a tenancy agreement in writing.

The woman lived at a rental property in Waimauku in Auckland’s northwest, and Francis had a separate house on the same property.

Francis kept an eye on when the tenant left the house and had CCTV which he used to watch her movements, the tribunal heard.

Have you ever had a nightmare landlord or tenant?

Two bus services being trialled in Rodney have proved successful.

Auckland Transport (AT) has confirmed it will fund Route 126 (between Westgate and Coatesville) and Route 998 (Wellsford to Warkworth) from May, 2022.

Both runs are meeting patronage targets, AT said.

The services are part of a programme of transport improvements funded by the Rodney Local Board Transport Targeted Rate.

The programme features more than $40 million of improvements in the Rodney district including new footpaths, bus stops and extra buses.

Rodney Local Board chair Phelan Pirrie said the board was glad to be able to keep investing in transport during a difficult time.

“It was a tough call for the local board to set up this targeted rate and to focus on new bus services. But the community consistently told us that local transport infrastructure and services are important to them - so we’re glad to be able to deliver on our promises.”

Auckland's Harbour Bridge will shimmer yellow this week to mark Road Safety Week.

The Yellow Ribbon Alliance, a group of firms raising awareness of road trauma, is promoting use of the colour to highlight road safety.

Road Safety Week participants can show their support by wearing yellow or donning a yellow ribbon pin.

Members of the public are invited to go yellow to show their support.

Organisations will be reminding drivers to stick below the speed limit, especially around schools and communities, and to adhere to the 20 km/h limit for passing a school bus.

School students are busy making posters reminding drivers to slow down, and will be dressed in yellow.

In its 10th year, the annual week will focus on speed with the Streets for Life theme.

More than 80,000 speed notices were issued around schools last year.

One in four people killed on New Zealand roads were in a crash where someone drove too fast for the conditions.

Speeding was a contributing factor in 79 fatal crashes and 424 serious injury crashes last year.

In 2020, more than 4000 speed notices and more than 80,000 speed camera notices were issued for offences near schools during school hours.
