Save the Basin Reserve! / August 2017
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.
