Wellington’s Flyover to Nowhere
- Eye of the Fish
- The business of the Basin Reserve flyover has been on my mind so I thought I’d use this guest post to question our current strategy for SH1 between The Terrace and Kilbernie.

If Political Parties came on Freeview…
- Wellington Region Cycleways
- First up a pertinent question after all the visual pollution has gone up in paddocks all over the country – Wouldn’t it require bright people to deliver a brighter future? Next… What if political parties came on Freeview.

Seatoun Wails
- Eye of the Fish
- While we here at the Fish don’t normally venture into the suburbs much, the case of the leaky roof at Seatoun School has got us thinking. In my case, for the most part, thinking: what the heck is going on here and how can the construction industry learn from this?

Hands Around The Basin: Sunday 25 September, 12 noon
- Sustainable Wellington Transport
- As you probably know, consultation on the NZ Transport Agency’s ill-conceived flyover designs have now closed. But we’re increasingly concerned that the Agency intends ignoring the groundswell of opposition, as they did in a previous stage of consultation – where 79% of submissions were opposed to a flyover. So we think it’s time to show how committed Wellingtonians are to keeping the Basin Reserve as a green space in the centre of our city.

Rugby World Cup is a good reason to go cycling or tramping
- Wellington Region Cycleways

Steven Joyce should resign
- Wellington Region Cycleways
- Update : It’s been explained to me that careless driving and dangerous driving are not the same thing, and careless driving is the less serious of the two.

The glorious struggles of the people’s working-class rugby art sculpture
- The Wellingtonista
- A year and a half ago we were offered a tantalising glimpse of the model of the Weta Workshop-designed Wellington rugby sculpture, noting its resemblance to a provincial junior rugby trophy, a knick-knack gift for a rugby-loving uncle, and a vagina.
