Our November 2017 public engagement
In November and December 2017 we released four scenarios for Wellington’s transport future and asked people to give us their feedback.
The public engagement included a series of community information sessions around the city and region, stakeholder meetings, and a public awareness programme titled Your Voice Counts.
Feedback on the public engagement is now closed, although you can still get in touch with us at info@getwellymoving.co.nz
