Auckland Transport are at the #Takapuna markets over the next few weeks getting input on improving walking and cycling infrastructure in the Devonport-Takapuna area. Head down and let them know we need better infrastructure for active modes of transport.

#Tasmanian minister Ferguson, & the chairman of TT-Line resigned due to the controversy in August.
The cost of building the two LNG dual-fuel ships has risen by A$94m from A$850m when the contract was signed in 2021.
The cost of upgrading infrastructure in #Devonport, has more than quadrupled from an original estimate of A$90m.
TT-Line was paying A$47,534 per week to berth the ship in #Scotland.
Getting the ship to Tasmania will cost A$4 million. #auspol #TasPol
Ah a late breakfast at one of the 3 cafes in the #Forways area of #Devonport; ran by locals, who know myself and my beautiful #GuideDog. Rason toast, a croisente and a hot chocolate with two marshmellows. One of which I added to the drink. How lovely it was.
Waiting around at #Tullamarine Airport in #Melbourne for Meet & Assist to come and collect me so I can reach #Tasmania & #Devonport.

I wouldn't have put Devonport top of the list of Australian tourist towns, but then again, what do I know?

For once not a train thing: a short ride on the passenger ferry from #Auckland 🇳🇿 across the bay to #Devonport is the thing to do, it seems, on a sunny autumn Sunday. Well then!
Government House, Mount Wise, Devonport, Devon, 1907 - Valentine's Postcard
Part of the HMB Endeavour replica.
From 2007 and, given the ship on the background, in Devonport.
I have no idea why it's at an odd angle. I think the camera took a photo its own.
"Home Hill" in Devonport, built 1916. Home to Enid and Joseph Lyons, and their twelve children.
Enid was the first elected to the House of Representatives and, along Dorothy Tangney (Senate), one of the first elected to federal parliament.

Reading about the awful #JapanEarthquake and the #Devonport #Dockyard #Nuclear Alert starts going off - then I realise it's a Bank Holiday and it's the normal Monday 11:30 test... 😰😰
Devonport (corner of Victoria Road & King Edward Parade) is where you can find my favourite plaque in Auckland. #Devonport #Auckland #NewZealand #plaque #historicPlaque

Friday, no staff at #Coles #Devonport.
After a fifteen minute wait, so folks walked out and left their shopping in the trolley.
What's strange about this aerial shot of #Devonport? Clue: it's not the naval ships or subs.
