Let's Get Wellington Moving consultation delayed for Christmas

From Morning Report, 7:54 am on 15 December 2020

Wellingtonians will find out next year if they are in line to lose their home, as a result of the multi-billion dollar transport package, Let's Get Wellington Moving.

An internal report, obtained by RNZ, shows consultation with the public is being delayed because the officials don't want to tell those people before Christmas their home may have to be demolished to make way for the development.

Instead, they're opting to tell them in February, when the detailed proposals for mass rapid transit and state highway improvements will be made public.

Harry Lock has been looking into the report.
