LGWM Consultation close tomorrow

Paul from Hataitai

A quick reminder to review the latest Let's Get Wellington Moving plan as feedback closes tomorrow.

www.surveymonkey.com...

It is a confusing document but please persevere as for the most part it assumes Wellington has a Mediterranean climate and that somehow installing boulevards will make public transport more effective and the streets safer. Something that certainly hasn't happened around Te Aro park.

Massive amounts of street access closures and reductions in car parks are proposed. If you're happy carrying your six bags of groceries home on the bus or bicycle then feel free to support it. Otherwise the main beneficiaries appear to be the shareholders in parking buildings.

As a person who uses public transport 80% of the time and also owns a bicycle, I see this latest proposal as something that will rip the soul out of the CBD, gridlock traffic - including public transport, and the only direction it will get Wellington moving is, out of Wellington.

We're talking new year resolutions...

Tidying the house before going to bed each night, meditating upon waking or taking the stairs at work.

What’s something quick, or easy, that you started doing that made a major positive change in your life?
