Question about Penlink

Martin from Stanmore Bay

Presuming that if and when penlink gets built and they stick with the ludicrous 2 lane road( single lane each way) how is it that its going to cost $830 million when transmission gully which is 20km longer cost 1.2 billion. so transmission gully cost just over 44million km and penlink is going to cost 118 million per km. someone is laughing all the way to the bank.

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”

We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?

Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.
