What’s new at RiverLink?
RiverLink in Lower Hutt is currently at the consenting phase and we are working to develop the design for RiverLink and preparing to apply for resource consents.
During this stage we will also start to consider construction plans. As the project progresses we will keep you informed, share our progress, and ask you for feedback on the designs and concepts we’re working on.
COVID-19 has had an impact on the project’s timeframes and, like many other organisations and projects around New Zealand, we need to adapt. We will continue to update you on developments.
If you have any questions about RiverLink, please get in contact with us on RiverLink@gw.govt.nz
Begonia house to be demolished at botanic gardens
It's outrageous that the Wellington City Council are going to demolish the Begonia house at the Botanic gardens. This is an asset. One would have thought the green faction of the council would have supported fixing it. It's strange no one has questioned the price required to fix it. Cycle ways more important than begonia house i think not

Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.
