Tunnel protest

Anti-tunnel protesters have put literal stakes in the ground, in an early message to roading authorities and the Transport Minister Chris Bishop.

A guerilla gardening event in October attracted over a dozen gardeners, who planted trees and flowers on NZTA land acquired for the proposed new tunnel.

A spokesperson, James Fraser, said spending so much money on a tunnel was the wrong thing to do in a ‘climate emergency’.

Planting trees was showing the alternative.

The planting took place at Bogart’s Corner, which used to be the site of shops and housing before it was bought and cleared by NZTA.
