The Herald reports that the Government has canned the Waterview tunnel, but hasn’t announced what it will be replaced with just yet. The Transport Agency is expected to make a decision today. The maximum budget for the project will be $1.4bn. Act MP John Boscawen thinks the whole thing can be done for $500m, so I’d be interested to see that proposal.
