Goodbye Otaki. I'm sorry, it's over.

All part of road to zero - eventually 100k will be a distant memory and new drivers will believe everything has always been 50.

This is the most likely prophecy in kiwibiker to come true. It’s also the only way ev cars or trucks gain decent range which then reduces strain on necessary charging and supply infrastructure .
Eventually no one goes anywhere we just live in pods on liquid food permenantly wearing VR goggles, about 4-4 generations away...

he said resurface. They resealed most of not all of the outer lanes of the kapiti expressway, that's a re surface.

I went over TG the other day as far as Pauhatanui and there is a left hand lane that has been resuraced .A good length of one of the uphill crawler lanes look very second hand too.Maybe due to the few days of hot weather

Well that explains why so many drivers struggle to maintain open road speed limits (except for when they speed up at overtaking lanes of course).
It's alarming, the continued & sustained damage to those new 'cheese cutters' on River Road & SH58/Haywards.... vehicles appear to be crashing into them on a daily basis.

I suggest a competency assessment be implemented ASAP for human beings... otherwise vr goggles & cotton wool suits will be the new norm.

They try to glorify it by calling it "The Singularity."

Still a good posse for a pie, piss, smoke and coffee before hitting the ferry. Now we just wait for saddle road bypass.... guess once they finish that the rimitakas will start getting makeover.

Nope. All they are going to do to that is put a speed limit of 60 kph on it.

so all in all what percentage of the 27000 meters do you think is not right?
