    Labour is adamant it isn't the end of the line for Auckland's light rail project

    Labour is adamant it isn't the end of the line for Auckland's light rail project


    After the governing parties couldn't agree on the way forward -- a decision is being deferred until after the September election.

    Transport Minister Phil Twyford says it could be done within 10 years.

    He says it would take a couple of years of land acquisitions, getting the RMA consent, finishing the planning and then several more years to build it.
