Cullen on review panel

Wellington: Former finance minister

Sir Michael Cullen has been appointed to the panel reviewing the

Transmission Gully project.

The Government announced in August that the Infrastructure Commission (Infracom) will investigate the troubled motorway construction scheme north of Wellington which has been plagued by delays and increased costs.

Sir Michael and former Fulton Hogan chief executive Lindsay Crossen will peer review the report, with the review to be led by international expert Steve Richards.

The review is intended to finish in the first quarter of next year.—
