Poll: Would you like to live near the inland port?

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

Buyers have been snapping up land for new homes near Hamilton’s Ruakura Superhub, with just over half the available sections sold.

This is stage one of a 74-section subdivision near the iwi-led inland port but the developer, Tainui Group Holdings (TGH), said there would be room for up to 4500 family homes in the coming 20 to 30 years. Land will be released for sale in stages.

Would you like to live near the superhub? Tell us your reasons in the comments (include NFP if you don't want them to be used in print).
