• • Shame on the Regional Council – it supports the flyover, but seems unhappy with its decision

    • 2 Nov 2011
    • Wellington Scoop
    • After a process that didn’t seem to satisfy anyone except Fran Wilde, the Regional Council will tell the NZ Transport Agency that it supports a 380-metre concrete bridge from the Mt Victoria Tunnel alongside the Basin Reserve to the Tory Street traffic lights.

• • A second alternative to the flyover, and a change of heart by the Regional Council

    • 8 Nov 2012
    • Wellington Scoop
    • The game is changing for the debate about a flyover at the Basin Reserve. Not only because of the unexpected decision by the Regional Council to reconsider its controversial support of the flyover. But also because of the news that another professionally-designed plan exists to solve traffic problems without the need for a 380-metre long bridge.

• • Basin flyover: another week of opposition

    • 5 Aug 2011
    • Wellington Scoop
    • It’s hard to find anyone who likes the NZ Transport Agency’s plans for a 380-metre-long flyover alongside the Basin Reserve. Starting at the Mt Victoria Tunnel, the structure would carry two lanes of vehicles above Ellice Street and Kent and Cambridge Terraces and discharge them at the Tory Street traffic lights. The flyover would be a dismal eyesore across the cityscape.

    It’s not just about transport. It’s about our city and the quality of our environment

    • 23 Aug 2011
    • Wellington Scoop
    • However you describe it, the 380-metre-long structure that the Transport Agency wants to build from Tory Street to the Mount Victoria Tunnel would change the Wellington cityscape forever, and not for the better. We’ve been wrong to describe it as a flyover. It’s much bigger than that. And the Transport Agency is wrong to describe it as a bridge. In reality it would be an elevated highway – which is an approach to road design from the early 20th Century that’s out of favour in most places.
