I also miss when driving was easy and you could happily drift over the centre lane, instantly killing yourself and several other people

Cool study on the positive psychological effects of sidewalk murals. Local governments seeking low-hanging fruit to improve citizen well-being should ensure funding for public art and placemaking - a cost-effective urban health intervention. #neurourbanism journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10.11…

It can seem a bit superficial in the face of bigger issues, but I think local, street-level design and policy choices are among the most important decisions we can make. thespinoff.co.nz/politics/20-08…

I disagree with Simon. When Stockholm adopted congestion charges it removed 20% of peak vehicle travel and reduced delays by about 30-40%. Apart from citywide parking management, no other transport policy comes close to these effects. Congestion charges are "key" IMHO.

Extremely impressive work from KiwiRail yesterday to clear the track and reopen the line so we could get our Metlink trains running again the same day. Much respect and thanks to all the workers who were out there moving debris and completing the checks to make things safe.

Phew, here's the facts 👇, and agree it's just really disappointing from Stuff wanting to be "the news" of our capital city. Perhaps symptomatic of the current editorial bent but this is pretty shameful.
