Local History: Hataitai bus tunnel

Nicholas Boyack Reporter from Community News

Part of the legacy of Wellington’s tramway system, the Hataitai bus tunnel is a beauty, as far as tunnels go, described as ‘the most decorative of the tram tunnels constructed in Wellington between 1900 and 1910’. Although constructed to fulfil a utilitarian purpose, the tunnel is elegantly engineered, with entrance designs influenced by the Classical style and featuring elaborate keystones and displays the Wellington City Electric Tramway logo.

It's not enough that we pay ACC $500 per year. Now the council want to charge for parking. So much for reducing congestion or saving the planet.
