• • General Meeting - April - Note Change of Venue

    • 22 Apr 2008
    • Wellington VHF Group
    • The April meeting of the Wellington VHF Group will be held at the Band Rotunda, Oriental Parade, Wellington, starting at 7:30pm. The Band Rotunda room is under the Fishermans Table restaurant, and the access id from the footpath to the right of the restaurant entrance, down the steps. (The change in venue is due to the usual meeting place at Tawa being used by the Council for a Disaster Recovery test programme). The meeting will cover the NZART Remits, and be followed by a “show-and-tell” session, and photos of the work that is going on up at Belmont.

• • Wellington 2040 - our vision

    • 17 Feb 2010
    • Architectural Centre Inc
    • While no one knows for sure, in about 30 years, there are bound to be a few changes. We’ve put together a scenario of what the city might be like then - and included some nice big images for the Council, hoping that they will be as excited by the future possibilities as we are. There is discussion on the Waterfront (like this image of what we think / hope it might be like), as well as discussion on the upcoming Basin Reserve flyover ‘consultation’ and the image that was published by the Capital Times two weeks ago.

    BNU Pilsner v Miramar Rangers 17 July 2010

    • 19 Jul 2010
    • Brooklyn Northern United AFC
    • At 2.25pm Miramar Rangers comprised a sorry rain-soaked crew of six players, so how easy it would have been for Pilsner to claim the points and warm up for the rugby with a few jars in the comfort of the pub. But hey, you turn up and you want to play, rain or shine - and amazingly so did they. By 2.45pm the home team had amassed ten players, one of whom was a mate of Carl’s who had just come along with us for a look-see, so it was game on, reffed by Smithy, albeit in the wrong colour jacket.

• • Bikes on Buses in the draft GWRC Long Term Plan

    • 29 Nov 2011
    • Cycling in Wellington
    • Greater Wellington Regional Council has included the implementation of bike racks on buses in its draft Long Term Plan, to be investigated and implemented where practical starting in 2017. It has been included in the ‘out years’ of the plan in order that high priority (and costly) upgrades to the rail commuter network may be completed in the short term. It is hoped that the provision of bike racks on buses will encourage cycle commuting by providing a safe, fall-back option for cyclists who are caught out by bad weather, failing light or mechanical problems.
