This is amazing!

I'm honestly surprised a council would publish something like this that seems to directly attack the current government's policies.

It's something you might expect to read on The Civilian (which I now notice doesn't exist anymore).

Greater Auckland is a transport advocacy group, they're not associated with the council or AT.

Oh thanks! I'm not sure why but I got the impression this was the Auckland regional council.

It does sound like it could be, especially with the Wellington regional council being called Greater Wellington
