No decision on Auckland light rail, as Government opts for 'fresh start' on project

Caryn Wilkinson Reporter from Community News

The Government has decided a “fresh start” is needed for its long-awaited light rail project in Auckland, pushing back any final decision on what to build to some time around the end of 2021.

Transport Minister Michael Wood announced on Wednesday he wanted to draw a line under the disquiet that surrounded previous ideas for the project and listen to Aucklanders about what sort of light rail system they want.

Key decisions on the project will now be put out to the public, who will have their say on what they would like light rail to look like.

Those decisions include the route the line will take, whether it should be surface-level light rail or a light metro that goes underground, and who will actually own the line.

Wood will create an establishment unit, which will take input from Aucklanders about what they want from the light rail project.

What would you like light rail to look like?

Thanks for being here on our story journey...
Since we published we’ve had amazing feedback. Sometimes the stories from people who use Last Writes are heart-breaking, but they tell us the journal has given them hope, relief and clarity. It provides a safe space for them to articulate important things and, hopefully, help their family when they die.
I know that, for Penny, living without her ‘larger than life’ mum has been tough.
Penny says, I’ve always said that mum had a very big heart. According to the Coroner – far too big. I am sorry that mum’s heart killed her but, as the recipient of that heart’s love, I feel unbelievably lucky, blessed and cherished.
Penny’s mum’s death wasn’t the end of her story. She lives through every person that authors their Last Writes journal. We reckon her big heart is full of joy.
Meanwhile, I am dressed in scarlet and she is wearing black. Always.

This week, we were very happy to host a graduation luncheon for the students, families and friends of the Advanced Level 4 programme and Level 5 Diploma Chefs.

The Diploma chefs achievement comes after nearly TWO years of chopping, preparing and cooking and many tests and assignments and a bunch of hard work plus some serious determination and the privilege of remote cooking through FOUR Lockdowns!

The Advanced Level 4 chefs started in June 2020 and worked through their programme with only THREE lockdowns and remote cooking. Needless to say, we are delighted to be able to award these qualifications after what can only be described as a roller-coasted period.

The menu included Gratinated Snapper with mushroom, spinach with Sauce Hollandaise, Pigeon Bay lamb with corn, polenta, baked cherry tomatoes and basil and Crêpe with raspberry parfait and vanilla cream to finish.
