Save the Basin Reserve! / April 2016
The Basin Reserve is one of the world's iconic cricket grounds, and New Zealand's oldest dedicated cricket pitch. It's an oasis of green space in the heart of the capital. But there is widespread community concern about the intention of three government agencies - the New Zealand Transport Agency (NZTA), the Greater Wellington Regional Council (GWRC) and the Wellington City Council (WCC) - to build a huge concrete flyover across the northern side of the Basin Reserve, destroying the atmosphere of the Basin Reserve forever.

NZTA Refuses To Publicly Rule Out A Future Basin Reserve Flyover
- Save the Basin Reserve!
- At the post-Basin flyover engagement process launch last night, I asked Jim Bentley of Let’s Get Welly Moving (the new brand of the Ngauranga to Airport Governance Group, the joint NZTA/Greater Wellington/WCC body) whether a Basin Reserve flyover was absolutely off the table as an option.
