Press Release – New Zealand National Party
Transport Minister Michael Wood’s defence of a $785 million cycle bridge over a vital transport link for 130,000 East Aucklanders shows how backwards his priorities are, National’s Associate Transport spokesperson Christopher Luxon says.
“Instead of the Eastern Busway which would connect 30,000 people a day to education and employment, Labour are prioritising a cycle bridge over the Waitematā harbour that might carry a tenth of the people if the weather’s nice.
“Despite paying Labour’s regional fuel tax for three years, East Aucklanders have almost nothing to show for the hit their back pockets have taken. Our communities out East remain woefully under-served by public transport options connecting them to Greater Auckland.
