The rain, the drains, the buses
- Wellington Scoop
- A week or so after 30 year, 50 year, 80 year, and 100 year rain events, no answers are forthcoming about why the city was shutdown because of a slip and a large puddle. Nor are any answers forthcoming on what the Wellington City Council in particular is going to do about the woeful state of its storm water. It’s a shambles and, in the middle of all of this, emergency management was really nowhere to be seen.

A bylaw; To enforce cyclist's use cycle lanes where provided at all times.
- Wellington City Council
- The overseas experience shows cyclist are required to use cycle lanes where provided and is embedded in their Road Code. A bylaw therefore will ensure compliance as the need to share the road as per the Land Transport Act (see definition of a road) no longer applies.
