The Campaign For Better Transport » AGM http://www.bettertransport.org.nz Better Transport for the 21st Century Sun, 20 Aug 2017 09:07:56 +0000 en-US hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.9.23 AGM and Airport Rail http://www.bettertransport.org.nz/2015/07/agm-and-airport-rail/ http://www.bettertransport.org.nz/2015/07/agm-and-airport-rail/#comments Thu, 16 Jul 2015 00:10:15 +0000 http://www.bettertransport.org.nz/?p=2169 Our AGM this year features a special guest in the form of Pete Clark from Auckland Transport, who has kindly offered to present the latest on rail to Auckland Airport.

  • Monday 20th July, 7:30pm
  • Richmond Road Community Centre, 510 Richmond Road Grey Lynn

Rail to the airport has been a long running project of the CBT – we did our first presentation to the ARC in 2003, urging designation of a rail route from Onehunga to the airport. In 2008 we presented a 10,000 strong petition to the ARC in support of designation. Today the recent announcements of the billion dollar East – West link, along with the fast-tracking of the Kirkbride Rd interchange pose some real challenges. Throw into the mix Auckland Transport’s recent announcement that it is considering light rail, and it is clear that Pete really has his work cut out for him!

All CBT members and newcomers welcome.
