change of mayor, and remove a bunch of the green councillors might see it get looked at, but it wont be happening within the next 3 year term.
 Its nothing to do with the Green councilors - I think you'll find all the right wingers running on austerity platforms wouldn't consider throwing money into a pit like that.

Greens focus is on cycle ways and removing cars from the city, wchich has diverted focus form anything else!
sooner the city gets rid of the ehavy green base the better
hasn't diverted from spending, in real terms, 4 to 5 times more on fixing and maintaining three waters infrastructure. and the cycleway/active transport budget is much less than private or public transport

Haha I’ve been sat on this post all day, so thanks to you and Nelfoos for responding with pretty much what I was going to say. 

Prof, don’t believe everything you see in the press. I mean, according to stuff, cycle ways killed some under performing , past it cafes, that were no where near them 😂

Anyway back on topic. Better things to spend money on unless it comes from elsewhere. 
That might be the case but they also did a pretty good job on badly affecting some successful  businesses in areas like Island Bay by removing parks in the shopping centre.

Living in Island Bay myself, the changes are outstanding and the suburban centre is back to being the hub it was before the upgrade. 
I don't struggle to find parks and the area is well served by busses and cycleways. 

Coucou is an upgrade on anything we had before and is absolutely pumping on the weekend and Parla is going to be amazing when it opens if it's anything like Kisa (sister restaurant in town). 

It's sad some businesses closed due to the disruption and they are a loss to the community but ultimately it was in the name of long overdue and much needed investment that has done wonders for the area and it's future proofing.
