Darren Petry from Taupō District Council

The countdown to the 2020 IRONMAN New Zealand is on! With the event taking place on Saturday, March 7 please be aware of the road closures that will be in effect over the weekend. As shown on the map, the best way to get around on race day will be via the ETA, Centennial Drive, Spa Road and Napier Road.

Please be aware Broadlands Road will also be closed, which will include the ETA off-ramp at Broadlands Road. Our landfill on Broadlands Road will be closed for the day.

Please take extra care on the roads this week, keep an eye out for cyclists and runners and on the day of the event make sure you look out for signage and detours to help you get around safely. Thanks everybody!

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!
