Carpool/Ride Share
Hi all I'm looking for a daily Monday to Friday commuter(s) travelling from Birchville, Upper Hutt and surrounding areas to the city who is wanting to share transport costs from Monday 10th Jan.
I'm happy to also choose the option of carpooling so not one vehicle is bearing the constant wear and tear of the daily travel
I work on Tory Street generally from 7.30am - 5.00pm but I can be a bit flexible with my hours to suit your work day 😊
Please let me know if your interested.
FAMILY OF POTHOLES
Not the biggest pothole in NZ but Alexander Road in Trentham has one of its round-abouts with a family of potholes on the roading making it difficult to avoid them.
The Upper Hutt City Council was quick and ridiculous to reduce the speed limit of all Alexander Road from 80kg to 50kg but not so quick to repair this multiple of potholes.
I must not hold my breath because nearly 4 years ago I held a discussion with the UHCC roading chief on the appalling state of the busy Ward Street road in Wallaceville and he agreed but asked me which would you prefer - fixing up Fergusson Drive or Ward Street as a priority. Well nothing has been done either to Fergusson Drive.
I am hoping the new Government with its plans to reverse some speed restrictions and introduce reducing speed restrictions on some roads, will prompt the UHCC to wake up their ideas of Alexander Road which in most part is non urban residential housing.
