Much of what the Luxon says about Te Huia is wrong. You’d expect a PM to provide leadership & give fact based responses rather than ad-libbing it based on ill-informed opinion…especially since there is an active review underway

The Future Is Rail Capital Connection was absolutely chokka last night and I loved it. I was wearing a work shirt and person across from me is one of our vendors, so we had a fantastic 2 hour conversation I would otherwise never have had.

Most businesses, in most countries, would be adding services if they had a transport service that was consistently full to capacity.

What a complete stuff up. Hundreds of millions of $ down the toilet, Picton trashed & South Island sidelined. The govt’s roading promises could be $26 billion MORE than projected. The TOTAL cost of the scrapped ferries and terminals was $3 billion

We held a packed out local meeting in Levin a few weeks back. Since then locals have picked up the conversation and run with it. It’s great to see people inspired about how the future could be for Levin. nzherald.co.nz/horowhenua-chr…

The epic journey of this railcar has delighted people across the South Island this week. One of these 90 yo NZ designed & built railcars once did Auckland to Wellington in 8 hrs 42 min. Hours faster than its modern counterpart. Shows how far we’ve fallen.

Trucking companies will be happy with the govt’s transport plans. Everyone else should be worried.
