Parking Simplified in the CBD
Changes are coming for inner city parking at the end of this month.
More than 15 Parking Zones will be simplified down to just 3, and new mPark signs will be installed to make it easier to tell what Zone you are in.
The new Zones:
▷ Zone One: $2 an hour, P180 restriction.
Currently the central inner city is a mix of $2.50, $2 and $1 an hour with a P180 restriction.
▷ Zone Two: $1 per hour, P180 restriction.
This area is currently a mix of $1, 60c, 50c, 40c and time restricted only
▷ Zone Three – $2 per day, all-day commuter carparks.
Water Street and Vinery Lane Car Park charges will drop to $2 per day, the same price as the Hatea Drive commuter car park.
There will be no changes to Town Basin parking, mobility parking, motorcycle parking, clearways and loading zones will remain unchanged.
Say goodbye to tyre waste
About 40% of the 6.5 million tyres Kiwis use every year are recycled, repurposed, or used as tyre-derived fuel. But the rest end up in landfills, stockpiled or dumped.
The good news is now there’s an easy solution to all that tyre waste. It’s called Tyrewise and is New Zealand’s first national tyre recycling scheme.
Tyrewise ensures that tyres in Aotearoa New Zealand are recycled or repurposed properly, saving millions from going to the landfill.
