Vorpal Blade 87 Posted June 4 Author Report Share Posted June 4 I would like to see whoever is in charge of the place put a whole bunch of controllable webcams on it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

U probably will not get much change from the harbour board as they have had so much bad filackfrom the members here. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
The big T 13 Posted June 4 Report Share Posted June 4 Harbour Board was killed off in 1988 under local govt. reorganization. Regional Council given statutory role while Port Co. set up for commercial operations. Maybe a task for AYBA as a service to keeler fleets. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

erice 282 Posted June 4 Report Share Posted June 4 somebody ask them then what auckland's budget will be for tourism webcams? then compare it to the budget for buslane cams Auckland Transport (AT) collected more than $11 million in fines in the last year and the AA says the system needs an overhaul. But AT is instead planning to install even more cameras. https://www.newshub.co.nz/home/new-zealand/2019/04/auckland-transport-collecting-an-extra-4m-in-bus-lane-fines-per-year.html The 16 cameras currently in operation are on Fanshawe St, Queen St, Hobson St and Khyber Pass Rd. AT plans to install a further six CCTV cameras this winter to monitor transit lanes on Grafton's Park Rd and Great North Rd in Grey Lynn. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The northern motorway will soon be at a standstill In the mornings of all the bus users users permanently switch to cars. Just because you love your car doesn’t mean it’s the right solution for everyone. In the same vein busses and trains don’t suit everyone. the problem comes in that motorway upgrades are paid by central government, but public transport is only funded by local councils, both with very different political agendas Quote Link to post Share on other sites
erice 282 Posted June 4 Report Share Posted June 4 i'm sure public transport rates will rise again once covid distancing is a thing of the past Quote Link to post Share on other sites
