	Clinton I have to travel from Orewa to Auckland CBD every morning and over the last year I've noticed the traffic progressively deteriorate more so now that the new bus system has been put into place. The reality is that Auckland busses are just too expensive to use so I doubt they'll have any positive effect on our current traffic problems. For my wife and I to travel in by bus would cost us $360/month, not much less than driving our car in. What's probably happened is all those people who usually travel by bus now have the opportunity to drive to a depot rather than walk to a bus stop. The result is still a crap and deteriorating Auckland traffic system, millions of dollars down and wasted on a less than successful bus system. The rising Auckland cost of living and houses forcing people further out of Auckland, along with the increase in fuel prices making it too expensive to travel that extra distance and the nuisance of having to spend 4 hours plus in traffic every day, I’m sure people will soon realize the benefits of moving to other less congested cities in New Zealand.



	Michellel Auckland traffic is getting worse, and it seems Transit is determined to make us suffer more by installing those darned on-ramp signals! Yes, that will ease the congestion for those already on the motorway, but what about those roads coming onto the motorway? The traffic backlogs like crazy to the smaller roads. Don't transfer the problem from the motorway to somewhere else! Is this Transit's way of saying "hey, I've fixed the traffic on the motorway"? What a waste of taxpayers' money. Put taxpayers' money to better use. We need bigger, wider roads. And better road designs. And better public transport. Not those darned on-ramp signals! And for those cyclists who do not pay roadtax, keep to the footpath. I'm not an anti-cyclist, but I can see why some drivers hate them. They can't cycle as fast as cars, and with our roads being so narrow, they end up hogging the cars behind them - thus contributing to slowing down traffic. Some self-righteous cyclists think they are 'easing traffic' by cycling. Yes they are...but only if they keep to the footpaths and not the road! What makes it worse is when they cycle side-by-side. Ugh.



	Shirley Auckland traffic has been crazy lately! There are too many roadworks closing roads and diverting traffic so that the usual routes are extremely clogged. Is it necessary to close certain roads (I'm thinking Mangakiekie Ave) - this closure has caused chaos in our area!



	Josh I have been driving in Auckland for about 4 years or so and I think there are a few problems with Aucklands traffic, in particular the motorways and how they are built. Merging lanes are the biggest mistake the government have thought of. People don't like merging anywhere let alone at high speeds on the motorway. An example of this is the North-bound Mount Wellington exit in Auckland. Recently, the left lane was made to be an exit only lane and it was the best thing that could've happened to that motorway. Suddenly there were no jams and people were able to stay in the right 2 lanes if they were going to the city and if not, jump into the left lane to get off, however... Once again, the government have sabotaged their own success and have reinstated the merging lane... Now we have nothing but jams around that area. In addition to off-ramps are the onramps. People coming onto the motorway too slow and being forced to merge with higher speed traffic. That in itself causes a jam. Now it's no good saying these problems without suggesting a solution. What I think we should do is have every on-ramp create a 3rd or even 4th lane and every off-ramp remove the 3rd or 4th lane created by the previous on-ramp. This would avoid the forced merging on the motorways altogether and gives you a whole lane to yourself in order to match your speed to that of the other lanes. If we don't do that, in order to get rid of the jams, we'd have to start dealing with teaching people HOW to merge and given the broad variety of cultures in our country, that will be thee single most greatest challenge ever put to our government. The thing with merging is you need to be confident about it and actually get up to speed and into the lane as soon as possible! Don't just follow the outside line in and hope for the best! I see a lot of (dare I say it) "people movers" filled with polynesians or maori's mostly (only a generalisation) doing this and after eventually merging into the lane, they do 70 freaking K's! Drive at A HUNDRED! it isn't that hard to do. I think it is WAY TO EASY to get your licence in this country if you have come from another. Especially in the islands where development is limited. A pre-requisit of entry into this country should be a driving test. If you don't pass, you get declined entry. When I went for a driving test, if you didn't maintain a speed within 5 kph of the speed limit, you were considered incompetent and you failed the test. Make that test compulsory for entry to the country too! Another thing that causes jams are marked police cars with flashing lights (or even without flashing lights) on the side of the road. WHAT IS WITH THAT! We are all a bunch of sadists. We ACTUALLY all slow down to take a look at what the police are doing there and who's been hit and how much damage there is etc etc. GET A F*ING LIFE! Don't worry about what THEY are doing, worry about what YOU are doing. I have seen numerous nose-to-tails that have simply occured because the car behind is too busy staring at what's going on. Traffic cars should be mufty... NO markings on them anywhere and when they have pulled the concerned car over or have stopped the vehicle on the safety shoulder, TURN OFF THE DAM LIGHTS! It seems the majority of people are dazed by the flashing lights too! Plus, if we make the cars mufty, then you never know where they are so people would then drive to the speed limit more often instead of slowing down every time you see a police car to either check out why it's there or to avoid getting a ticket. Boy Racers... BAN THE F*ERS. I think we should implement a similar law to Australia whereby they are given a single chance and after that, their car is crushed. This country is WAY too tolerant on these people and that is why we have such a high re-offence rate. I bet if you crushed their car, they'd NEVER speed again. All I can say is... GOOD! That's how it should be! Treat cars like lethal weapons... Because in the wrong hands, they may as well be. A little off the topic of traffic but definitely food for thought. The on-ramp and off-ramp extra lane thing is the main point I wish to push though. I think it would reduce traffic jams incredibly. EXIT-ONLY is the way to go! Get RID of MERGING LANES! Especially on MOTORWAYS!



	Michellel It's terrible!



	Tara Arrrrgh its always shocking, I have given public transport a go as i was keen on the idea of sitting back and relaxing going to and from work. Ha this was a pure joke, having to wake up at 5.30am (and hour earlier than normal) to catch a train at 6.45 (forty five minutes earlier than i would if I drove) from new lynn, then the waiting around for the connecting train to take me to Panmure. Return is even worse for waiting around and gets me home an hour later than i would normally. Unfortunatly the buses are even worse and i wouldnt even look at going on one unless i was desperate considering the bus drivers dont even seem to know where they are going. Auckland traffic is pure crap but not as bad as the public transport, I would be nice if some tax payer money went to finding a solution



	Robert Diabolical. Also need camera coverage to the Bombay Hills on the web site, then we can determine alternative routes if required.



	Josh I was recently the victim in a motor vehicle incident. I say 'incident' because it was no 'accident' that the idiot coming the other way was doing in excess of 80 kilometers per hour and consequently lost control of his vehicle, came across the center line and smacked into mine before hitting the power pole that consequently fell directly across my front windscreen. SLOW DOWN!!!!! Auckland is a big rush. People are trying to merge and race to get in before the car next to them, running orange lights, running RED lights, zipping in and out of lanes on the crawling motorway only to end up 2 cars ahead of where they were or sometimes even BEHIND where they started. If you're merging, MERGE! Don't WAIT until the lane you're in runs out and it's too late. MERGE! Indicate, and move into the next available space. To those already on the motorway, LET THEM IN for god sake. slow down and let the merging traffic come over. If the government is so persistent with these "Merging" lanes then we should at least know how to USE the things. SLOW DOWN AND PAY ATTENTION. The driving age should be raised to 18 and the tests should be WAY harder and more specific. People should LEARN how to control the lethal weapon they're driving. A motor vehicle is no different to a gun. Both can take someone or several people's lives when mishandled. Make the licence to use a motor vehicle as strict and age limiting as that of one to use a firearm! Clean up this city. Get the crap and trashy drivers OFF the road, get rid of MERGING lanes and make tests etc more difficult to pass before handing the licence to a lethal weapon out to people. That's all I have to say.



	Ingrid I have just been on the Police website to try and find out where I can make a suggestion regarding the traffic lights at the corner of Great South Road, Orams Road and Browns Road. I could not find anywhere to register my suggestion so here I am!! The volume of traffic coming from Orams and either turning or going straight ahead is far greater than the traffic coming from Browns Road. Despite this, the lights remain on for a longer time for Browns Road than for Orams, causing a huge backup of traffic on Orams Road. I come through anytime from 6.00am to 9.30am and there is no difference. Browns Road traffic have no back up what so ever - all cars get through on their light.



	Colleen Getting worse and worse every year. What has happened this last week with the Great North Road/Titirangi Road and Rata Street intersections in New Lynn. It has been impossible to move forward more than 1 inch at a time. I have had to abort my travel plans, cut thru the back of the Warehouse carpark to get back out on to Great North Road and go in to the city via Kingsland. I was late for work both Tuesday and Wednesday. Had to leave home 15 minutes earlier this morning to ensure I got to work on time. Even then I had to go thru kingsland as the Rata Street intersection was still clogged.



	Lord Alex South Auckland has a major problem with people running red lights and not just one, often its 5-6 cars who will run the red light without even thinking, this has been happening now for over 5 years yet not once have I seen the police checking this or red light cameras installed. I catch the bus in the morning from Takapuna to the city and love the bus lane as it makes it a quick trip. However it is frustrating that the buses cluster, ie 2 or 3 arrive so close together and then there's nothing for 20 mins and this is at peak time!! Getting the bus home at night can also involve some patience!



	Driver It's worse in different areas. Constelation Drive - Albany Offramp is a nightmare at 5pm. Do not be caught there if you're in a hurry. It's heaps better than the old East Coast Road days but it still does need attention, especially in the area identified above.



	Paul omgomgomgomgomg. it's so bad.



	Doug Some improvements in attitude in LTNZ Wellington is all that would be necessary to save many, many hours of wasted time and enough fuel and emissions to save the planet. All LTNZ have to do is try and move the traffic instead of stopping it. Here's how: Right hand turn arrows hold up motorists, often waiting for an empty road. We drove around England last year and hardly saw a single right-turn arrow. Over there nearly all intersections have roundabouts. These are mostly as simple as a white circle in the centre of the intersection and some lane markings and signeage. It could be done in one day and the traffic lights (and red-light cameras) put into landfill where they belong. At the very least, the red lights should only stay on for 5 seconds, then go out. Some intersections already do that, such as Weymouth/Gt South Rd, Manurewa. Te Irirangi Drive is the worst place to turn right, usually waiting on a stupid red light blocking an empty road. Many drivers ignore it. Pedestrian crossings: once the red light shows for pedestrians, the traffic light should start flashing yellow 'proceed with care' as in England. So unless there is a granny with a walking frame, the cars can get moving. The worst example I know is the pedestrian crossing as you leave Auckland Airport International terminal. Cars and buses wait about a minute for an empty crossing with the pedestrians long gone. To improve driver concentration, take away all the advisory speed signs on corners. There are none in England, except the odd SLOW sign on a tight bend. It sure makes you concentrate on your driving. In NZ we get spoon-fed the speed to drive at and feel comfortable adding 20 or 30 kmh to the speed shown on the sign.



	Luke This is another copy of a letter I sent to the On Ramp light team, still awaiting a reply. It is probably because they get so many complaints. Hello Once Again I still haven’t had feedback from the first one. Anyway here goes. 1. If as you say the lights and motorways are monitored by CCTV why isn’t someone monitoring if these lights actually need to go on or the speed at which they change from red to green is shortened when the motorways are running freely? 2. What determines whether they are activated or not? 3. Why at Hobson St is there a light at all, the cars coming onto the motorway have a lane to themselves for a long way in which time they get to merge. 4. “Merge” it’s a 5 letter word that Kiwis don’t like. But education on how to do this would be great – get Scott Dixon to show us – they don’t have on ramp lights at the Indy 500. 5. Have you thought of the flow back effects of On Ramp lights at Gillies Ave and the upcoming ones at Greenlane. As soon as you turn on the ones at Greenlane (as has happened at Gillies Ave) you will cripple the entire Greenlane Ellerslie area. Again an On ramp light there is a waste as you are merging into an OFF ramp at Market Rd, there is ample time to merge. 6. The light phasing at Great South Rd - Campbell Rd Intersection is not working efficiently. On the one hand you get a Right turn signal but can’t go straight ahead, when you finally do get to go straight ahead the 2nd set of lights are only on for such a short time that about 5 cars get to go through. My office is 500m from these lights and currently as I write this, the cars are cued up another 300m back to Rockfield Rd. Look it up on your maps!! 7. RED LIGHT CAMERAS: if you want to stop this happening as much then 2 main things need to occur. Firstly put Yellow Lines across the intersection as is on Cook & Nelson St by the Police Station, so if you are monitoring these lights as you say, then give people tickets for parking over an intersection. I am sure that the amount of revenue you would collect would far outweigh the cost of paying people to monitor this. Eventually once people start taking notice because of the fines they are getting this problem will lessen. The reason that parking over an intersection is a problem is that it hampers the normal flow of people in cars going through an intersection. Secondly pedestrians should be fined for jaywalking when the lights change – cars get held up and then will risk running a red light because they are waiting for someone to cross the lights – I have seen drivers try to hit these people who are oblivious of their actions as they don’t get the light phases. Why not have the Countdowns on ALL the lights around the city!! 8. Traffic Fines should be shown on Veda (Baycorp) – If you can’t leave the country while still having fines to pay then why not share this information to the Credit Agencies. It will also have a flow on affect to giving people credit that have a large amount of traffic fines. The LTSA do it if you haven’t re registered your vehicle in time so why not do it across the board.



	Concerned Auckland Traffic?? Crazy! If Londoners drove this way they would have gridlock. Co-Operate! Think SPACE,.. for everyone. Let that other car in. Let them merge or turn into a side road. EXPECT that other car to cross your path, I mean ANTICIPATE. GIVE signals and HEED others signals! I DO MEAN Buses and Taxis too! How do I turn into a side street off Khyber Pass across the bus lane AND SURVIVE if you ignore my signal???? DON'T gun the traffic lights.. I want to survive! Put lane marking well before intersections, so I know which lane to use. Hang them from the traffic lights too.. the new ones are too low.. so a waste of money. Phase lights correctly. Left turn from Parnell Rise to Stanley Street is stop-go-stop-go. Fix it! Make buses user friendly. No fingers if I toot a warning. You deserved it! Buses more often than every 20 minutes on Manukau Rd in the rush hour! Through-ticketing, stop the squabbling and make it happen. Cut the diesel stink from these buses, and retrain the drivers. Some are shockers, some okay. Any more? Oh the ning-nong ramp signals are stupid and will not work. Having stop-go cars and go-go heavy trucks on the drag up Grafton gulley is a recipe for disaster. Someone will end up under the back bogie of a 44-tonner. Cut the points of conflict where our roads are two lanes then one then two then one. NUTS! And cyclists and scooter riders,.. cut the idiocy or you will be TEMPORARY KIWIS! And schools? Our treasures are there, SLOW. Cellphones? Hands-free ONLY please. I will honk to drown your call if you endanger me this way, okay? Finally WAKE UP, there is world out there. You are not the only one on the road!



	Hennie I fully endorse the comments of Murray. I have driven in peak traffic in other countries and it is the drivers of Auckland themselves that are causing the delays. EVERYONE should drive at the maximum speed allowed during peak hours and there would be no problem. The rubbernecking syndrome is not limited to accidents only.I have seen the domino effect developing where a car parked at the side of the road, causing a pile up. In some countries the traffic authorities unoffcially allow peak traffic to move over the speed limit allowed without any accidents. This one factor; proper speed will aleviate al lot of the enormous frustration of the drivers. But who has the guts to initiate such a move?



	Mark Get over it. Where I come from 45min to an hour would be considered excellent.



	Unkown we need a monorail :) much more convenient and enjoyable transport anound town it will get many more people off the road in town and will improve flow in town and conjestion under the victoria bridge.



	Johnno I read in todays Phoebe's column in the NZ Herald where she refers to a 'B light. Her column is not returning until September'! Can someone please tell me what a '"B light" is before I run foul of it when next I am in Auckland -(Hopefully not until next year!)



	Jacob Make sure if you have any traffic suggestions regarding lane markings, signage and most importantly traffic light phasing you can email NZ Herald traffic reporter at this website - http://www.nzherald.co.nz/author/index.cfm?a_id=127 I have suggested a few things and they always get followed through. There are some terrible light phasing setup in AKL and nobody seems to care! Make yourself heard :)



	Juanita It horrible every morning north bound and it horrible every evening...south bound i send 45 mins to an hour each way.. thats a possible total of 1hour& half to 2 hours a day... when i can spend that time at home wif my kids not just that...i have to leave even earlier which takes time from my kids to get to work on time and leave way later than the actualy time i work till....just so the traffic itsnt soooo bad.....again more time away from home... i hate auckland traffic...



	Bevan Seems to be getting worse. I would dearly love to use public transport the what is currently available is just not suitable travelling from Avondale to Takapuna.



	David We need more cycle lanes, more car pool lanes, and higher petrol taxes to pay for public transport initiatives.



	Celeste Traffic where I come from in Auckland isnt usually too bad...But this morning it took me 1 hour to get to Newton from Hillsborough. It usually takes me 20min max. There were no accidents, no road works, no parked cars..there was really no reason for the traffic, except the light phasing at the intersection of queenstown and herd road's. I think light phasing is a major cause of traffic jams in Auckland and needs to be looked at. Another intersection which has light phasing problems is the right turn light from great south road onto church street, it only lets 3 cars through during peak traffic!



	Paul i avoid the traffic rush hour like the plague. driving along the northern motorway from orewa each day to work. despite the new bus lanes i can see slow improvements but the all end at the same bottle neck and that is the harbourbridge. .



	Siobhan There's too much traffic for the roads, and the motorways are a frightening and frustrating place to drive.



	Thomas bad. but public transport is even worse



	Barb Why is there always a jammed motorway leading up to the bridge going from the Shore to the City? There is no traffic flow pattern at all and it can take an hour at a time to get over the bridge.



	Maureen Very congested. People don't co-operate with one another.



	Hazel Terrible. Need a second crosing PLEASE!



	Murray Problems with Auckland traffic are exacerbated by poor driving skills. Very few people seem to be able to make proper use of motorway lanes and it is common to have even relatively light traffic delayed by people meandering along at 80 kph in all 3 lanes. People sit in the fast lane and others underpass in the slow lanes which is a recipe for disaster. A compulsory period of driving on any major European motorway system would probably wake up the ideas of a few drivers! Another problem is lack of indicator use (particularly by SUV drivers for some reason) or on the other hand an assumption that once the indicators are on that lane changes can occur immediately. Compared to many countries I have driven in, Auckland does not have excessively high traffic volumes and an adherence to simple practices such as above would immediately improve the flows.



	Craig Bottle necks on the Motorway can only be solved by widening the whole motorway ... not the on ramps .... 4 lanes to 2 will always cause issues. ...



	Don A co-ordinated real-time traffic advisory system that covered all the arterial routes and was available on-line and over all radio stations would allow me to plan my trip to and from work to avoid unnecessary delays. It is beyond frustrating when I have several routes to work, to get stuck going one way to find another way was clear!



	Don You can make the bus fares more acceptable. I have been using the bus for 3 years from Torbay, and $240.00 per month is a good installment for a car. I stopped using the bus because I would rather spend my money towards my own car, even if it will cost me more in the end.



	Claire Very congested for such a small city. I live south and the South Western is actually pretty good but the Southern motorway is terrible and all road development is usually late in coming and by the time the new raoding is usable, it's usually up to new capacity, there is no forward thinking. Does not help that the public transport system is nigh on non-existant and unreliable. If there was a good rail system you could get a large amount of cars off the road.



	Ali Where do i go if i have ideas to improve traffic flow? Simple, effective ideas.



	Sophie i think it is bad because there are not enough roads for all the cars and this is causing traffic jams and crashes also air pollution



	Jo I travel in peak traffic from West Auckland to South Auckland so it can get very frustrated at times



	Kara Shocking, Absolute chaos especially in rainny conditions



	Kate It's bad but if people stuck to the rules it would go a lot smoother. There are a few spots that need attention.



	Graeme Far to congested. Bottle necks at NW and Southern 24/7 Bad driving habits, please put up signs that say 'USE LEFT LANE UNLESS PASSING'



	Stuart The focus on private vehicles must end. Congestion and air pollution is the direct result of an undeveloped public transport system. The way forward is to maximmise rail in the south and west, with electric trains and a rapid rail link to the airport. In the North and East dedicated busways seem to be the best option. Ultimately, neither Labour or National governments will deliver the public transport system Auckland needs - they've both wasted 150 years in power. A stronger Green presence in parliament is the only way forward for transport in Auckland.



	Lynette I think that in parts of Auckland e.g like by schools, on rush hours on the motorway and some other places like these places it is really bad but apart from that Auckland traffic is fine.



	Fiona There's certainly plenty of it. I think the frustrations experienced by many drivers are starting to impede on our driving, eg running red lights. Often when a light is green, you really have to check that noone is still coming through. Honestly it would take more than 10 sec to fully comment on the state of Akd traffic. I'm considering writing a paper on it for my next assignment at Massey, so i will put those thoughts down there. I think Akd is a great place to live and it's a shame that's it becoming increasingly difficult to actually move around the city. We need to take a fresh look at the problem and come up with some alternatives of getting people out of their cars onto public transport. How do we do this?? I think the companies / councils seriously have to look at providing the service first and then more people will use the buses, ferries etc. I catch the bus in the morning from Takapuna to the city and love the bus lane as it makes it a quick trip. However it is frustrating that the buses cluster, ie 2 or 3 arrive so close together and then there's nothing for 20 mins and this is at peak time!! Getting the bus home at night can also involve some patience! I'll stop now else i will keep going forever...



	Blair Its A BIG CITY lots of cars things get busy..thats life



	Rajal It is all right but need to work on the trffic lights in town and should have another lane on motorway for big vehicles like trucks to save time and increase the speed limit on the other lane from 100 to 110 km which will help



	Ryan Getting better all the time. have noticed a good improvement over the past year since a heap of the small modifications have been made and the onramp lights enabled.



	Peter South Auckland has a major problem with people running red lights and not just one, often its 5-6 cars who will run the red light without even thinking, this has been happening now for over 5 years yet not once have I seen the police checking this or red light cameras installed.



	Andrew Insufferable and third world. I have lived and worked all around the world and this is my context. Major investment is needed quickly, including recruitment of offshore workforce as ours will never cope alone. An alternative transport solution is urgently required including upgrade of ferries, rail, bus and other infrastructure. People need to believe in the change and it needs to cost less than their cars. But don't charge for cars inner city. Make the business case for public transport pay its own way.



	Anna Its great!



	Wayne The roads are like water pipes , the big pipe must be at least the sum of the small ones, making lanes from onramp to off ramp would be a good start. Still why bother if you are pitching the public toward buses,plus slow to respond to walking, cycling and ignoring motorcycles or tacking them on as an afterthought/p.c. decision



	Donna Diabolical. I don't have to travel peak times thank goodness, but it is still very frustrating getting around. You can never tell if your journey that should take 30 mins (10 mins in Christchurch) will take an hour or more. With 1 mil people, Auckland should receive 1/4 of the roading allocation to correct this nightmare.



	Warren In 1950 Aucklanders used 100 million trips on public transport compared to about 60 million trips in 2006.(Aucklands population has nearly doubled during that period) The price of public transport in Auckland is arguably too high. Auckland's Public transport system has the worse patronage in Australasia. This is a reinforcing or cyclic problem where the lack of passengers leads to inadequate and expensive services which discourage people from using it in the first place. There are more cars per capita in Auckland than any other city in the world. Auckland regional council spent $66 million in subsidising bus fares last year(Thats our money). the public spent $99 on top of that subsidy to pay for buses. while the bus company that got $63 million of the $66 million dollars in subsidies made a profit of over $33 million dollars- over half of the government subsidy. Do you see something wrong here?



	Myles It is shocking and getting much, much worse. The solution is more ferries - see our website www.q-west.com



	Joan its getting worst everyday. public transportation needs promotion



	Martin Could be worse



	New Zealand Traffic Reports and Motorway Cameras Auckland Traffic - Hamilton Traffic - Wellington Traffic - Christchurch Traffic



	Samuel We need to ban cars with less than two people in during peak times.



	Shaun Very, Very bad. I live in Pukekohe and would like to take the train, however it doesn't fit with my work schedule and am forced to take my car. Leaving at 6:30am each morning It takes me approx 1.5 hours to get to Greenlane where I work. Under light traffic this same journey would take about 35 minutes.



	Megan Auckland traffic is an absolute shambles. The improvements that are being made don't seem to be helping much. If the government took a harder stance on how many vehicles were coming into this country, this may help in keeping the traffic levels down as well as obviously looking at better solutions other than just widening roads



	Rajneesh PROBABLY ITS THE WORST AMONG ALL DEVELOPED COUNTRIES. THERE IS NOT MUCH HOPE EITHER. ONLY SOLUTION TO THIS PROBLEM COULD ONLY BE TROMS/TRAINS. GOVT. SHOULD SERIOUSLY THINK ABOUT LOCAL TRAINS & TRACKS. ALSO, THERE SHOULD BE ANOTHER BRIDGE OR TUNNEL CONNECTIN NORTH SHORE AND CITY TO AVOID TRAFFIC ON HARBOUR BRIDGE



	Derrian I think it is very crowded and there are to many traffic lights and on thee motor way there should be more lanes plus a truck lane



	B. Smith Well... it's not as bad as LA..!
