David Cannon
He’d make a great Prime Minister.
Ronnie Rowan
Amazing man with integrity. Pakuranga is served well with this man.
Alan Galley
Yes. Simeon is the real deal and great for our area. He is being prepared for greater things and is going to do well.
THREE SPEED LIMITS WITHIN 800M FUELS DRIVER IRRITATION (Times), November 20:
Jane DV
The stretch of the SE highway from Ti Rakau to Waipuna was 100km/h for years.
Dennis Ware
Who’s the goose that designed that gooseneck that’s causing a big part of the problem for those coming from Panmure in the later part of the day?
David Aucamp
I agree. I was stunned at the lack of a median barrier and also with the light posts along the centre.
KO Hing Bong
Concrete central barrier is seldom [used] in New Zealand. Also too complicated road arrangements, cars, bus lane, bicycle lane, T2, T3 that may induces complicated and confusing. AT wants everything on limited budget, time.
Maggie May
Yes, no barriers just a matter of time before someone hits one of those lampposts.
Ryan Simmiss
Surely a roundabout would work better than that monstrosity of an intersection.
Anish Raj
Have you seen traffic from Auckland Airport on Puhinui Road? It’s so bad, it’s like roads are being designed for 1980s numbers and not for the future. Weird.
Sophie Melrose
Why do the lane markings look like this? How confusing and haphazard they look. Really who is designing these projects?
