Priority: reliable buses
- Wellington Scoop
- The Regional Council has today given me the job of Transport Chair. My top priority is a reliable bus service and, to achieve that, I’ll have a laser-like focus on building up the driver workforce. I also want to make sure our transport network is accessible and affordable to everyone. At the same time as we fix these immediate problems, we also need to prepare Wellington for the future. I’ll be working to accelerate delivery of mass transit through the city so that as Wellington grows we can all get around smoothly, safely and in clean, low emission way

Small notice, big building
- Wellington Scoop
- Did any of you see a small sign in a spot that’s only visible if you’re catching the courtesy bus to Zealandia? It’s a notice about a resource consent application for a new building that will tower over the Michael Fowler Centre, the Town Hall, and neighbouring buildings. Nearly 40 metres high, when the allowable height is is 27 metres, promoted as the home of Victoria University’s National Music Centre but predominantly an office building with what seems to be a significant loss of green open space.
