@GregPresland If only successive councils had done their jobs and used money collected for water on water, instead of frittering it away on stupid unrelated shit. #LGWM.
#LGWM was hampered by 3-way decisionmakers & continuous scope creep. Still need bus priority on Golden Mile this means fewer private vehicles - same recipe used in all other cities. #Wellington walks & catches the bus, provide for that @NewshubNZ @NZLivingStreets
@miriammooretoo There is already almost a pedestrian crossing from Harris St - waiting for ?? to make it work #LGWM. There are two pedestrian bridges across the Quays (& a lift from Civic Square now blocked by construction!), they provide a great LOS 4 pedestrians & a great view. Support walking
Recent traffic light changes have slowed this pedestrian crossing down, and tiny mid-crossing stopping place isn't big enough. Maybe #LGWM could make a plan to support all those #Wellington walkers out here doing sustainable climate friendly travel @WgtnCC @NZLivingStreets
@samhdonald Best news ever. #LGWM was never going to work. Our public transport isn't up to the task.
Climate-friendly modern transport for Wellington takes a hit in National party transport policy. #LGWM, the only programme that has walking and public transport elements, a significant $ investment could be gone post-election. #VotesMatter @NZLivingStreets
So, National intend to blatantly ignore how Wellingtonians vote and impose their 20th century ideology on said voters - overturning the outcomes of previous consultations and undoing years of work - all at the tipping point of a climate crisis #LGWM #Wellington #ClimateCrisis
@roger_blakeley @ScoopWellington @getwellymoving Proposed, not approved.
And they ran a trail in December last year to asses the impact, something #LGWM refuse to do.
@getwellymoving @WakaKotahi_news @WgtnCC Get Wellington shoppers moving out to Queensgate?
Where parking is plentiful & free!

Here's two of the top cities in the world New York and Toronto doing it. Creating space for people and revitalising their inner cities. Why are #LGWM 's plans for the #GoldenMIle so controversial in Wellington? Don't tell me those cities are somehow different from Wellington.
NYC: narrowing streets + taking back space from cars to create spaces for people. This is why transit matters. To apply this to Toronto, the more people arrive downtown by transit, the more viable this is for getting around in city. Ontario Line is golden to enable this. Gardiner rebuild is not.
More examples of cities where introducing better walking and cycling paths has led to revitalisation of business improvement districts. Why do some business leaders claim that what works in every other similar city in the world somehow would not work in Wellington? #LGWM
From Manhattan to San Francisco, the need to rethink the urban core is encouraging business improvement districts to change their tune on prioritizing cars. https://t.co/44F6xMk2j7
Waiting 3 traffic light cycles to get through each intersection because there are (only) 3 buses ahead really slows my bus down. But will #GoldenMile #LGWM proposals fix it? Same # buses with general traffic at intersections- no increase capacity. @NZLivingStreets
Still processing the decision on most important #Wellington traffic resolution heard to date on #GoldenMile #LGWM. Final design only seen at TR process stage. Design flaws aplenty yet ignored. Polarised debate from the start with inevitable decision result. This is less 1/4
It seems inconsistent to complain about the lack of progress on Let's Get Wellington Moving, when your solution is to stymie the project altogether.
How about we focus our collective energy on delivering great light rail and cities that cater to people not cars. #LGWM
Wellington's Let's Get Moving transport plan back on track after failed bid https://t.co/qb3eRy29go
Well that's good but also: far too sodding close for a city-shaping initiative of this magnitude, and importance, and consultant budget. Shame on you @getwellymoving that it comes down to this. Y'all need to shape up. #LGWM
This. THIS. 👇👇 Watch out for concern-trolling that weaponises"accessibility" against the very street changes that would make streets more #universallyaccessible . #LGWM
New piece from me about public transport, about LGWM, about today's open letter and about accessibility (which people always seem to tout in these letters but never actually care about)
share if you vibed

Open letter from CBD businesses to mayor: we oppose LGWM Golden Mile plan https://t.co/XIN1VSH6zA
'Not just pedestrians ' imagine trying to get on or off the #bus with escooters parked in the busy bus stop. Are there any councillors who care? @DaranPonter @nashthomas Not convinced #LGWM has any solution to fix this
