Dixon and Ghuznee streets could be pedestrianised
What do you think of the idea to take cars off some busy Wellington streets?
Several busy Wellington streets could be blocked to cars as part of a proposal presented to Wellington City Council next week for a low-traffic central city.
It suggests Dixon St and Ghuznee St could both be “snipped” to remove through traffic between Taranaki St and The Terrace.
Victoria St could also be changed, with no traffic between Manners St and Wakefield St, and a possible service lane in the southbound direction.
