Lost History

In the next few pages, and the attached PHOTO CAROUSEL  are stories Wellingtonians have not been seeing over recent years in local news media - including media releases by LGWM...

1. Does Wellington really want a “rapid” transit system that’s limited to the road speed limit and requires three new tunnels? - A never-published rebuttal of a January 2020 glowing item in DomPost/Stuff about supposed virtues of Trams/‘Light Rail’.

2. Ongoing  reports of ‘Light Rail’ accidents overseas, endangering life and disrupting traffic. You may not learn of this till after LGWM imposes the wrong choice.

3. ‘Light Rail’ breakdowns disrupting ground-based traffic... frequent and unnecessary, disruption that does not arise with Suspension Rail.

 

...Is this apparent media bias inadvertent? Or is it misinformation? At the least, it is not careful use of available information.
