Lets Get Moving Quickly
Let's forget that I am a Wellingtonian. What I want as a person residing in the region outside of the city is for Wellington to get moving quickly and make up somewhat for lost time and opportunity.
I see Wellington city as the place where there is an airport that should be fully international, a general and specialist public hospital, sports stadium and arena, an army of large stylish theatres, home of the national museum, the Botanical Gardens, the Courtenay Place entertainment strip, a port with a beautiful waterfront, Government Central, Universities, a movie making hub and so on.
So does the new -old plan that the Labour Government is just now pushing for with a 2028 start, fit the bill?
No. For really one reason only: there has to be a double lane tunnel thru Mt Vic available to all traffic (or two devoted lanes each way for all traffic) .
And I am not fussed with light rail from Wellington Station to Island Bay when a rapid bus service would suffice and the savings go towards other initiatives.
Poll: Should drivers retake the theory test every 10 years?
Drivers get where they need to go, but sometimes it seems that we are all abiding by different road rules (for example, the varying ways drivers indicate around a roundabout).
Do you think drivers should be required to take a quick driving theory test every 10 years?
