It's quietly disappeared and given the funding window for some of this stuff is out to , probably won't happen before then. Interesting, huh. Interesting that they can just kick they can down the road when it comes to policy. Case in point: By far the most significant growth in population and economic activity in New Zealand in the next 25 years will occur in the North Western areas of Auckland. We know this. It is an undeniable outcome given the scope and sequencing of the AUP. However, not a peep on upgrading infrastructure now for this impending deluge of population.
At the crossing on st lukes rd by the motorway off ramp that goes from cycleway to cycleway, the beloved council just spent 1. What gets me about this, and all these projects, is A the cost versus what you actually get is so far out of whack it is unbelievable, B Traffic trucks - wtf is that about - 1 person working on motorway behind his truck , 4 guys in 2 traffic trucks sitting there doing fark all - ahhh the unproductive economy, lump them in with landlords.
That's rounding error money, Govt could have easily funded that today. A drop in the bucket to speed up buses for a growing part of Auckland. So , where are the high and mighty Greens They're working out how to swallow the dead rat they've been handed.

Climate Emergency? Oil and Gas prospecting? New power sources? This is an enormous win for the silent majority. I may have to vote NZF to make sure the Greens can't reverse this. NZF stood by , with sour looks , when Taxcinda shut down our offshore gas exploration industry They are odious, but they have done well limiting the damage Labour and the Greens could have done. No transformational change and this Boomer is sitting pretty House now at CV and only a few years until I have my snout in the Super trough.
Another 3 years of this isn't bad, just disagreeable for my children, but they can get on a plane if they want. That about sums it up. Ultimately I think this is bad for us all. But in the meantime some pigs get fed Yeah but turkeys won't vote for Christmas, so of course Labour have to continue the status quo, until it's generally obvious it can't be continued any further. Phil " Fulton Hogan " Twyford must be breathing a sigh of relief Kiwi Ashphalt They would have been better off writing off all NZ resident student loan debt for people who have made correct repayments for at least three years.
That would have really unshackled the economy without the carbon consequences. Why the hell you postponed an already devised plan for 2 years? Incompetent and timing is super opportunistic.

Does not paint a good picture of Labour values in terms of having best of the country in their hearts. This clearly shows that they only think about power. National is not better off course. Labour is desperate for votes Labour has proven that their election promises mean nothing. I don't think this will convince many swing voters to vote Labour. Most of the road projects are quite localised in benefits. For me, it turns me off Labour because it moves them further from what I elected them for. Port of Tauranga should be paying a large chunk of the Northern Tauranga project above and beyond road user contributions as its heavy vehicle traffic is an enormous volume on all roads in the area.
I also suggest a targeted levy on all drivers living in the area as in my experience the relative congnitive ability of road users is alarmingly low in the BOP which I am certain contributes to the staggering accident rate on the roads. Speaking of stupid James Shaw Gnats Labour nil Like our dear boomers enjoyed back in the days!!
I can see what will happen there.. You would be better served creating an alternative harbour crossing with rail capability It very much looks like there will be a large number of Labour and Green MPs lining up for the dole in October. What economist would disagree with the rationale of taking advantage of the low interest rates to invest in public assets to lift productivity.
No question. No economist would disagree. They were taught that productivity was per labourer, which it was years ago. It's per litre now. They're where Bishop Wilberforce found himself, post Darwin Huxley gave him what he deserved - someone needs to do that to 'there's an unlimited planet' economics. And even with low interest rates, it's still a borrow; an expectation that the future will deliver.
But it's all over, really. We're out of time. Beyond , the Limits feed-back loops become unbeatable. Watch it, note the spin-peddling upthread, and weep. We're not even having the right conversation, this late in the piece. We may as well paint the Sth Island blue and save the cost of holding a vote down here. How long till the handouts to beniferies are announced or will they be just more words no delivery? And in Melbourne Australia , a major roading 6.
Australians will be evacuated to Christmas island under quarantine Jacinda says its very difficult but will speak to allies I am sure the NZers there would have preferred she had her priorities right.. NZers first, reelection 2nd. I'm no rocket scientist but I'm going to take a stabe in the dark and say that tourist towns arent that viable without tourists. At least they could have held back on that to see how it develops. Due for reshelving after the election then A change of tact for Labour, promises and do nothing, instead of promise pie in the sky and fail to deliver after pushing dollars at it.
When it's a matter of spending-down the finite resource of a finite planet, anyone with an IQ of over 40, should be able to forsee the future. It'd delpetion. It's overshoot. It's collapse. And - given exponential growth in extraction of same, that collapse has to be ' near term'. More than the inflation adjusted cost of the original bridge!!! Would be almost an order of magnitude cheaper to have a permanent free bus service ferrying pedestrians and cyclists across bridge every few minutes.
Not to mention they already announced it was fully funded in Pork Barrell Politics at its very best. Speaking NZTA here.

It was deployed without the usual systems integration, performance testing, rollback or disaster recovery plans. The spend is one thing, you need look through and consider the structure of the ventures used to perform projects. The bigger the spend, the more residual project risk resides with NZTA.

Which is why we need a mix. Plenty of non-office jobs don't require gear to be hauled around. JJ, A reasonable question. You obviously do not understand the benefits of keeping profits local? Perhaps they would have signed us up to OBOR?
Labour has plenty to answer for. In my view, it doesn't warrant another term in government. What a difference 3 years makes.
Yes, because National would have come up with the zero carbon bill all by themselves. Pretty hypocritical don't you think to spend billions on roads. We could say that was a Green influence, not Labour.

Charismatic reporting in stuff. And a gem here Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern said the programme was "a once in a lifetime opportunity to invest in New Zealand - modernising our infrastructure, preparing for climate change and helping grow the economy". Climate change can meaning anything. If memory serves me correctly Labour never won the last election. Was surprised not to see any new energy projects given the tight supply in electricity markets. Did you get School Cee? Wood is the worst thing to burn.
