    Hearts and minds – via ads

    • 28 Mar 2022
    • Talk Wellington
    • When it comes to winning hearts and minds (and dictating our behaviour), commercial marketing has run rings around public-service advertising for decades now. But some public-good campaigns on our radar are looking slick… Big brands get to throw serious budget at making us decide to buy their stuff, and their communication is often exceedingly good....

• • Metlink On Demand trial extended to the end of 2024

    • 4 Apr 2024
    • Metlink
    • Good news for Tawa and Porirua public transport users: the Metlink On Demand trial has been extended to the end of the year. Metlink On Demand is an app-based service introduced to Tawa in May 2022, and extended to the Porirua CBD in June 2023. Passengers can order rides from small buses operating without set routes between around 600 flexible pick up and drop off locations or ‘virtual stops’. Greater Wellington Transport Committee chair Thomas Nash says the regional council’s public transport wing knows the service is well-used and loved by locals. “Metlink On Demand was born out of our commitment to connecting more passengers with public transport,” Cr Nash says. “We knew the Tawa hills and central Porirua were underserviced areas and that Metlink On Demand could help fill this gap.

    • The PSA have launched a website “asking for candidates across the country to sighn up to an anti-privatisation pledge” (their description not mine). Where Do You Stand? Given almost no one in Wellington is making noises about it, it does seem somewhat redundant (and I’m sure anyone who is in favour of privitisation will simply ignore the PSA), but good on them for doing something.
