Is there a limit to the *&#$% of the Cone People?
There are road works of some description in Mains Ave.
What do they do?
They put rows of cones into Kamo Road (!) and a couple of lollipop guys with crash helmets holding up the traffic down Kamo Road. There is NO justification, and NO visible purpose to this, other than annoying through traffic.
I almost feel like asking for Wayne Brown to come up from Auckland and banish those in charge to lower Turkmenistan. The intellectual vacuity behind these 'safety measures' is unbelievable. I repeat: there was no work going on on Kamo Road, no workers were near Kamo road, except the two guys with stop-go lollipops.
Seriously, folks.
Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝
In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”
We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?
Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.
