How work will improve Te Ngae Rd?
I amjust wonderinghowon Earth all thatmoneypoured into improving Te Ngaerdis going to help the current traffic flow.
Fromwhat I see there is anew shared pathway between Sala St and Tarawera Rd. Careful consideration has been taken to detour the pathway around redwood trees (not even native).
Between Sala St and Tarawerard there looks like there will still be two lanes on either side of the road.
Howis this going to decrease the congestion problem ?
Iwould have thought another lane either side would help the traffic flow particularly at peak times.
Therewas already a shared pathway which could have been movedover to allow for an extra lane on each side of road.

Doubtful
Itwaswith total disbeliefwhen reading inmonday’s newspaper an announcement in which Judith Collins states National will leave a legacy for thenext generation.
Shewas quoted as saying: A complete upgrade of transport, education andhealthcare infrastructure.
Collinsmaynot have been the leader for thenine years of a policy of not spendingmoney on anything butwas a seniormemberof the National Party.
I’d like to believe this will happen, but I doubt it very much.
