Basin Reserve Update – 21st March 2013
- Keith Johnson
- FROM 'A' TO 'X' VIA 'RR' AND BACKI went along to the Strategy and Policy Meeting of Wellington City Council today, as I have an interest in the integrity of its Assessment of Alternative Options for Transport Improvements at Wellington’s Basin Reserve.

Flyover vote
- Eye of the Fish
- Later today the Council will vote on their support of the flyover. Related to this, an interesting tidbit came out yesterday and almost slipped me by: “Steps to move state highway traffic off Vivian St are among measures needed to ease the impact of a Basin Reserve flyover, Wellington City Council says.” Holy-moly. That’s new. Up until now some Councilors have been willing to admit privately that the way the Ngauranga to Airport “strategy” completely ignores Vivien Street is absurd. But the Council in an official capacity has, as far as I know, never said anything to this effect before.

Mitigation
- Architectural Centre Inc
- In the case of the Basin Reserve flyover, the Wellington City Council has asked for further “mitigation” of the proposed Flyover (concrete bridge / Option A). For its part, NZTA has also promised some “mitigation” of the effects of the flyover, and says that they will focus on “mitigation” to ensure that the flyover is “integrated”. Trouble is, I’m not really sure that they are talking about the same thing.
