Julie and her young son wear bike helmets. Their bikes are parked behind.

Councillor Julie Fairey has spent much of her political career advocating for safer, more connected streets in Auckland. When a driver struck her bike, it became personal.

Her message is an important one for us all.

Locals asked for cycle lanes in the Clevedon road safety upgrade. They’re not getting them.

It's a shortsighted call that locks in car‑dependence.

Meanwhile, Clevedon School kids still can’t bike to school safely.

Is this really the future we want for our communities?

What makes remote work work?
Personal connection.

Trust, ownership, regular check-ins – and making time to meet in person when it matters.

Some OpenProject teams kicked off the year together in Berlin, aligning, connecting, and planning what’s next. 💚

Remote, but connected.
