b) build a $2 billion motorway hits capacity the first day of its opening thus necessitating immediate planning for a new $4 billion motorway extension

@jennngot Wellington be like: 'Its 2 bedroom'@Rosslikesoceans![]()
new zealand’s public transport policy is either:
a) build $1 billion bypass that bottlenecks at 8.30am and 5pm everyday
b) build a $2 billion motorway hits capacity the first day of its opening thus necessitating immediate planning for a new $4 billion motorway extension
a) build $1 billion bypass that bottlenecks at 8.30am and 5pm everyday
b) build a $2 billion motorway hits capacity the first day of its opening thus necessitating immediate planning for a new $4 billion motorway extension
It’s bizarre that the only public transport to Wellington airport for the foreseeable future is one of two circuitous bus routes with the same number, no airport signage and no luggage space, followed by an 8 minute exposed walk via a Burger King drive through.

If Auckland Council + AT wanted to keep transport revenue stable (or increasing!), it could simply add more customers, by allowing intensification along public transport routes. Here's a 1km catchment of our frequent bus lines. They should allow mixed-use apartments here. twitter.com/toddniall/stat…@ScootFoundation![]()

BREAKING (CNN): Rep. Steve Cohen confirms that Rep. @laurenboebert gave a large tour prior to the attack on the Capitol.
The attempt to install an unqualified Trump loyalist as NSA General Counsel just 72 hours prior to the start of a new Administration is highly irregular and highly suspect. This placement should not move forward.

If you think I'm spending too much time talking about house prices in NZ please keep in mind that the UN called it a humanitarian crisis. More and more people are being driven into homelessness over this. Damp, rotting houses are worth millions.

Its outrageous that house prices have gone up 20% over 12 months, and that landlords are renting out shipping containers and sheds for $400 a week, and that our supposedly 'transformational' government continues to do nothing about it. How long can people keep swallowing this?

New Zealand's housing shortage / crisis in a nutshell.
Most Kiwis want to have this banned and the would-be landlord punished by Council.
But this would never find a tenant unless all other options were even worse, right?
The solution is allowing way more building.

BRB going to CRY about the Wellington rental market 😳🤮 where do landlords find the audaciTY pic.twitter.com/ICmHrrFdzR
I completely agree that it is very bad if that shack at that price is someone's best option. It suggests that there are far too few options available in Wellington. Should Council focus its efforts on enabling more options, or blocking what might be someone's best option?
Everything currently is flat-out. The Unitary Plan has enabled a lot more building. But we're still rather short of what's needed. And Auckland will be hitting infrastructure constraints in giving effect to the NPS requirements.
I would be willing to put $50 toward a crowdfunding effort to add a Gary Gygax statue to the Garden of Heroes, and $100 towards a Gordon Tullock statue.
