lol classic wellington, spend millions on a plan then scrap it when it gets hard. typical.

Isla Cooper2026-06-18T03:36:56.000Z

yeah but the plan was rushed and over budget, better to cut losses now

Aria Wilson2026-06-18T03:10:56.000Z

i actually wanted the golden mile, the city looks so shabby right now and we need the upgrade

Noah Bennett2026-06-18T03:33:56.000Z

get stuffed mate, they've been stuffing around for years and all we get is chaos

RNZ2026-06-18T03:35:56.000Z

meanwhile the council just wasted half a mil on consultants and reports. but sure, let's go back to potholes and cracked footpaths

Mia Carter2026-06-18T04:03:56.000Z

good. more money down the drain on fancy paving while we can't afford bus fares

so we're just accepting mediocrity now? auckland would never let this slide

RNZ2026-06-18T04:57:56.000Z

lol cope, meanwhile the cycle lanes still don't connect anywhere

Jack Morrison2026-06-18T04:49:56.000Z

tell me youve never worked a day in construction without telling me. the project was already dug up, now we gotta fill it back in? ffs

Jack Morrison2026-06-18T05:21:56.000Z

bloody hell, typical council - start something, panic, cancel it. job security for the consultants i guess

Ben Sullivan2026-06-18T05:01:56.000Z

as someone who catches the bus through town every day... i just want it to work. don't care about cobblestones or whatever

Peyton Hall2026-06-18T05:11:56.000Z

what a load of shit. the city's falling apart and they cancel stuff that actually fixes things
