Building a road and saving 30 seconds
- 7 Mar 2015
- Wellington Scoop
- One of the most extraordinary things about plans to bulldoze a road through the pristine Takapu Valley is the claim about how much time will be saved. They’re counting the savings in seconds. The claim is found in an Appendix to the controversial report in which the chief executives of regional councils tell their mayors that they ought to support a road through the valley.

National War Memorial “Earthquake-prone”: Demolition?
- 31 Mar 2012
- Eye of the Fish
- In some pretty shocking news that has just been leaked out of the new super-ministry this morning, the National War Memorial in Buckle St has been declared to be an earthquake prone building. The building, completed in 1932, has a concrete frame, but the weight of the heavy bronze bells in the Carillon is thought [...]

A Mt Cook resident explains why a flyover would be bad for the city
- 24 Oct 2011
- Wellington Scoop
- I would like to attend the Wellington Regional Council meeting when they discuss the traffic around the Basin Reserve. But I cannot, because it’s being held during a business day. Such meetings should really be held at times when community representatives would be more likely to attend. Though I can’t get to the meeting, I want regional councillors to be aware of my opposition to raised-roading around the Basin Reserve. Neither of the two raised road options will do anything to enhance the Basin environment.

Everyone’s happy about putting SH1 into a trench – so, more please
- 16 Mar 2010
- Wellington Scoop
- The weekend report that State Highway One will be moved into a covered trench under the new park in front of the National War Memorial seems to have pleased everyone. Mayor Prendergast says it’s the best solution and “a superior outcome.” The principal of the nearby Mt Cook School is “absolutely thrilled.” The Mt Cook Mobilised group is “very happy.”

Cut and Cover
- 15 Mar 2010
- Architectural Centre Inc
- In a surprise move, the possibility of lowering State Highway One past the National War Memorial was announced on the front page of the weekend paper. At the Architectural Centre, we have been advocating this for a number of years now - we hosted a Symposium on the design of the ‘Memorial Park’ in 2007, and the over-whelming feedback from the group of assembled experts was that the roadway through the park should be lowered.

- 19 Feb 2010
- Wellington Scoop
- The people of Mt Cook know what needs to be done to make the long-postponed Buckle Street Memorial Park a success. The best solution, they say, is to trench and cover Buckle Street, so that the park can connect with the National War Memorial.

- WCC are reviewing the Residents Parking and Coupon Parking schemes in inner city suburbs, including Mt Cook. According to Wellington City Council, Mt Cook has 1248 households with an average of one car per household. There are 644 off-street parks, leaving 604 car owners to park in the 938 Residents or Coupon parks. In Mt Cook there are 726 residents or coupon excemption permits currently issued. On the face of it, all this seems fine. Are you having trouble parking in your street?
