• • The Greens: recyclers extraordinaire

    • 30 Oct 2008
    • The Wellingtonista
    • This particular Wellingtonista was just down at a protest taking place at the Greater Wellington Regional Council offices. Of course, the GWRC transport plans (PDF) are well worth protesting about: more roads, no light rail? Despite the hundreds (and the great majority) of submissions asking for the opposite?

    Inevitable? Why one Basin flyover will be followed by a second Basin flyover

    • 12 Aug 2013
    • Wellington Scoop
    • The NZ Transport Agency should come clean on its flyover plans. Our practice believes that one flyover will pave the way for a second. The Agency’s proposed options for mitigation of the flyover, which it has developed in agreement with the Wellington City Council, include a “commitment to consolidate state highway traffic away from Vivian Street and into a single east-west corridor.”
