Have your say on Hutt transport

Nicholas Boyack Reporter from Community News

The council is surveying residents about transport in Lower Hutt.
The survey follows on from a May 2021 survey that looked at peoples’ travel patterns.
People are asked about the degree to which aspects such as convenience, congestion, cost, parking, safety, and connectedness affect their decision to travel by private vehicle, public transport, or active modes such as walking or cycling.
Lower Hutt Mayor Campbell Barry says the integrated transport strategy is a foundational piece of work for the city as population growth is making it harder to get around.
"This strategy will set out a vision and roadmap for the future of transport in Lower Hutt. We need to ensure that all parts of our transport network work together more effectively so that all users feel they can get around our city safely and efficiently."
What do you think the council should do to ease congestion?
