As many Aucklanders would have noticed, residential parking restrictions have been expanding for quite a while, getting further into the city fringe into increasingly residential areas. Aneeka spoke to Rick Bidgood from at&t about why this is and what this means for transport in the city.
Last year, Auckland Council removed 30% of bins from public places with the hopes of saving about $9.5 million over an eight year period. While the council didn’t foresee an increase in littering, last week Stuff published an article sharing the frustrations of residents who observed a growing litter problem in council parks.
Illegal dumping has also been on the rise across Auckland.
With more than 1300 reports per month, the cost of retrieving illegally dumped items is about $2.7 million every year and rising.
Also Mayor Wayne Brown has announced that he wants to see Auckland become the “premier tech city” of New Zealand to boost our global influence and reputation—-- calling on the government to establish the new Advanced Technology Institute here, which he says could play a key role in guiding new start-ups, so ideas don’t ‘die on the vine’.
Beginning with the problem of rubbish in Auckland, Producer Sara started by asking Julie Fairey if she believed the removal of bins was to blame for increased littering
Leaping Tiger is playing our Christmas party this weekend and he is releasing a new record in January. He popped into studio to chat about his mint single 'Screw Face' featuring a whole bunch of fantatstic bFM faves. Whakarongo mai nei!
Zoë's back from her holiday with some reckons on what's good in theatre this week. Get yourself along to the Shakespeare Pop-Up Globe to catch the ol' classic Romeo & Juliet. And following that theme, Auckland's Shakespeare in the Park 2020 is on at the Pumphouse, so why not make a weekend of it?
We've got Luke Buda from the Phoenix Foundation on the line this morning ahead of their first performance in Auckland in 18 months. Rachel catches up with Luke about what the band has been up to, with a few lil' hints about what we can expect. You can catch this special gig on Sunday at the Silo Sessions down at Silo Park.
Disciple Pati has a big weekend coming up: she's playing our Drive Island alongside Dick Move tomorrow evening, and she'll be killing it down at Silo Park on Sunday for Milk & Honey's curated Silo Session. Both those gigs are free so get yerself down there and hear some sick music!
Tāmaki creatives D.Arts and Jane Olsen have an unwavering commitment to the best music around. For Damon Arts, this is demonstrated via his longstanding immersion in Aotearoa's UK influenced bass scene. For Jane, it is through her Parks&Rec mix series, which focuses on easy tunes intended for the sunshine, the park, or the picnic rug. We are so excited that they are back home after five years ripping it up in Amsterdam. Expect an effervescent two hours of music, as D.Arts ramps things up, and Jane Olsen brings us back to earth.
Rachel and Stella enlist the listeners to help tackle a cryptid crossword. Alice Canton is in the studio for Stage Direction to give us the lowdown on the 2024 theatre season. Jennifer Jiyun Park is on Ready Steady Learn to talk about her research into gaming addictions in Aotearoa. Whakarongo mai nei!
