STOP TRANSIT'S TUNNELS


Spokesperson: 
Green Party

PUBLIC MEETING

WEDNESDAY 13TH FEBRUARY 2008 6PM

ST JOHNS IN THE CITY CHURCH (cnr Willis & Dixon Sts)

Transit have begun consultation on the Ngauranga to Airport Transport Strategy - and this could see more tunnels, more roads and more flyovers being built through the heart of our city. The result will be more CO2, less oil, and a worse quality of life for Wellington residents.

But there's still time to change the plan. Already there's a strong push to make the city more pedestrian and cyclist friendly, and to invest in high-quality bus services and innovative light rail systems. Instead of throwing money away on roads, we can invest in making Wellington a more liveable, sustainable and people-centric city. So it's time to speak out!

The public meeting will give you information on what's happening, Transit's plans, the better alternatives, and how you can influence the process. The meeting will be short, and there will be refreshments on offer. So take a bit of time to participate in the debate — and bring your friends and family!

When: 6pm, Wednesday 13th February

Where: St Johns in the City, cnr Willis and Dixon Streets

Why: Because it's your chance to help build a better Wellington

See you there - and please pass this e-mail on to all your local contacts.
