The "holiday highway", f@ck noooo!

[Akzle]

consent granted, for (probably) fulton hogan to build MORE fucking road between auckland and north.
(puhoi-wellsford)

seriously, they dropped the speed limit 20km/h so aucklanders drove into each other less - and they didn't. now they're going to add more road for them to drive in to each other on.

fuck you auckland cunts, and fuck anyone who votes national, and fuck you.

on the upside, it may get some of the dipshit tourists/aucklanders off the backroads in peak season, but still.

[R650R]

Shouldn't it be renamed the Elite Commuter highway? For most of the time that is what it is, so people too rich to live on the north shore can commute several hundred k from lifestyle block in Mercedes c class....

I remember when the Northern Motorway stopped at Tristam Ave (Now to Puhoi) and Otahuhu to the south (it's dual lanes to at least Te Kauwhata) many many kilometres have been added for the betterment of driver comfort, this next lot is just adding to that, and in due time. 120kms of Motor/Expressway.

[Mo NZ]

Farrrrk.
I remember when there was no Northern.
Traffic lights to turn up the hill to Glenfield, which had farm paddocks behind it.
Nowadays there are lights as far as you can see.
Thanks for making feel real young again.

[SPman]

Faaaarrrk.

I remember when there was no bridge.
Took 2 hours to get to Auckland from Albany by ferry or drive around the harbour!

Oh

it still does........?

[Mo NZ]

Yep.
9 pence for the Sat Movies and 6p for a bag of lollies enough to last the movies with some to take home.
Catching Snapper off the point at Browns Bay and spearing Flounder on the sand along the beach. Piper by the bucket load at Murrays Bay Wharf.
Hand milking 2 cows twice a day ( my job ) before and after school. Sisters collected the eggs.

Auckland:killingmecheers i had long since forgotten it existed.Seems like its located in another country.

[Mo NZ]

Yeah.
We left in '68.
Don't regret that at all.

They have a bridge .. ?? ... one or two lanes ... ?? :confused:

[unstuck]

Yep, remember when the northen ended at Tristram, there was some good bike riding around sunnynook back then. Worked on the farm next to the shit ponds when it went through to greville rd. came to my senses then and got the fuck out of there. Used to be some cool jumps at the corner of bush and spencer roads back then too.

[Swoop]

fuck you auckland cunts, and fuck anyone who votes national, and fuck you.
You Norflanders don't realise that you are just a suburb of Auckland now. Len Brown is watching you!

I didn't live in Auckland at the time, but relations did, at Forrest Hill, cousin and his mates had bikes (70's 125 Honda's) that they used ride on the Motorway construction which finished at Tristram. Back then the earth movers didn't move on the weekend it seemed.

That's not funny. They like to boast that it's the biggest city in Polynesia. They only say that because athough it's even more an Asian city, sadly size does matter.

I live in Birkenhead, and my elderly neighbour has lived in the area his "whole entire life" (fuck, I hate that expression). He was telling me how he used to catch snapper just off from the Birkenhead Point wharf, and the rowboat would be so full of fish it was in danger of capsizing.:eek5: Then he couldn't even give them away; no-one wanted them, not even for compost for the garden.
Fucker. That's why the harbour's got farkall fish in it now, from greedystupidcoontz like him.:(

[TheDemonLord]

I am just waiting for them to have a proper motorway system that goes from Bluff to Cape Reinga and is at a minimum 2 lanes each way.

[george formby]

On the bright side. I should think the numbers of errant drivers heading north will drop significantly whilst the new highway is being built. Christmas in road works anyone?
Well, I hope so. The throng of Christmas holiday fuckwits gives me the shits.

[Motu]

the rowboat would be so full of fish it was in danger of capsizing.:eek5: :(

My family lived at Bucklands Beach, back then a remote community. My father and an uncle worked in the only industry on the peninsula, Eastern Buses. The family had a boat building shed, a crane used to lift the boats out of the shed, over the road and onto the beach. They were also fishermen, and a few years ago an uncle showed me a photo of them standing in a dinghy, only just floating...they filled the dinghy 3 times and ran out of room in the hold of the boat - had to leave the fish in the net and come back later after off loading in Auckland. That was inner harbour, probably just off Music Point.

In area it may be bigger .. but based on population ... it's sadly lacking (as are most JAFFA's) .... Small actually ... :laugh:

Must be the big heads of the JAFFA's that makes it SEEM bigger .... :innocent:

fuck anyone who votes national.

Out of interest, who will you vote for?

Roadworks in the Auckland area wont bother ME in the least.

I'm far enough south ... them going south a bit wont bother me either. So ... all good there ... :whocares:


Well, I hope so. The throng of Christmas holiday fuckwits gives me the shits.

With my close proximity to Queenstown ... most of the traffic is "Holiday" traffic ... at Christmas the fuckwits just get more common ....

[Akzle]

It was like that in the Iron Pot Napier when I was a kid. We would catch undersize baby Teraki by the bucket load and take it home to feed the cat...

And you wonder why they're not there anymore

No I don't wonder... I just bitch and moan and blame the Asians like everyone else ;) I find it funny as f*** when the local Asians rock up with decrepid falling to bits fishing gear and start pulling fish out of the water like Jesus while everyone else aint even getting a bite lol

[Akzle]

this is all youse's fucking taxes. you should be incensed. building roads a) not specifically for motorcyclists b) so commuting cunts can commute (to stinking-hole-of-shit-/auck-land) c) for fucking TRUCKS. and it's all gunnae bottleneck at the fucking tunnel anyway.

i laugh ( i never drive in traffic) every time i go through auckland, and there's fucking kilometers of carparking in the opposite direction, and now the rest of NZ is footing the bill, so MORE fucken aucklanders can do it for MORE fucken kms.

I'd vote for the Akzle decentralise party.


Stupid phone / Tapatalk, apologies in advance.

[Big Dog]

I vote we build up in the city, move those who don't like high density out of Auckland. Decentralise businesses that don't being it from centralisation and centralise those who would experience greater efficiencies.

We'll you have a city full of Asians already so they will be sweet with high density housing.

Trebuchet are a seige weapon, similar to a catapult, but where the force is generated by a falling counterweight
