Increase Native Plants, Birds and Insects in Victoria Park

Victoria Park is the largest green space for a long distance, but is sorely lacking in NZ Native Plants, birdlife and insects. The beautiful trees there now certainly shouldn't be going anywhere, but several sections of under-utilised, water thirsty grass would be prime candidates for shade-loving natives as well as converting some small sections of other lawns into native plantings. Working with the right species would hopefully encourage more native birds and insects into the area and allow them to spread along the future green link between wynyard quarter and albert park.

Linear park Vic x Alb

Still support this. What happened to this? Auckland Transport never liked the idea and have been dragging their feet.

Pedestrian crossings

Give people time to cross. Some CBD crossings (e.g College Hill x Beaumont Street) are too wide and the green light is not long enough. Probably still based on the old 50s US study standard which is no longer adequate for modern times and an ageing population.

Put pressure on supermarkets to have a paper bag option at fruit & veg + pick n mix.

There's no point in banning plastic supermarket carry bags when there are still other ones allowed that have minimal 2nd uses.
