Mayor Aaron Hawkins says a one-way street provided better safety and public amenity outcomes, and was likely to attract more central government funding.
But councillor Lee Vandervis dubbed it “pedestrianisation in drag” and compared it to Christchurch’s Cathedral Square, which became a “a glue sniffers’ assembly place” when it closed to traffic.

We'd be keen to hear about your favourite summer holiday spots in NZ. Is there somewhere you keep returning to year after year and, if so, what are the main attractions?

The comment came as Andrew Little confirmed a new governance model for the project, which has an estimated price-tag of $1.4 billion.
The concept design for the new hospital is expected to be approved next week, and contractors will be asked to tender early interest in working on the project.
“The new Dunedin Hospital is a top priority for the Government,” Little said.
Construction of the hospital will be split into three phases, with preliminary design work under way now.
Work to demolish the former Cadbury site continues. That block will become a new inpatient facility, to be completed by 2028, and the former Wilson car parking site will become the outpatients' facility, to be completed by early 2025.
In September, then-Health Minister Chris Hipkins announced $127 million had been released for the project to assist with design, demolition, piling and project management.
