Wellington Central's MP says he's comfortable with Let's Get Wellington Moving as it stands

Wellington Central's MP says he's comfortable with Let's Get Wellington Moving as it stands

10 December 2019

The National Party's launched a petition to bring forward construction of a second tunnel.

Grant Robertson says we need to prioritise public transport and a tunnel is still part of the plan.

He says he's represented the electorate for a long time and the plan is reflective of Wellingtonian's views.

Transport Minister Phil Twyford says National had nine years to build a tunnel but got distracted by a Basin Reserve fly-over nobody wanted.
