GW is reviewing bikes on trains.
I hear they are proposing to restrict access to off-peak, and start charging.
CAW will need to campaign hard to retain what we fought for and won.

Are we up for this?

GWRC is calling for submissions on the regional Travel Demand Management Plan and the Road Safety Plan, due 14 September.

GWRC are calling for submissions on the Regional Policy Statement, due 8 June 2009. This covers broad environmental policy, but it would be good if the Great Harbour Way was written into it, in particular the concept of a path around the harbour as close as possible to the waters edge. Could also ask for concept of a regional cycling network to be incorporated. Is anyone planning a CAW submission - if not I'll draft one.

GWRC are consulting on the proposed regional land transport programme 2009-12. I've got a print copy of the document, but it's also online. We'll need to get a submission in by 24 April.  Any volunteers to coordinate this?

reports, attachments and minutes of the T&A and RTC meetings where the GHW concept was raised or considered. 

Hard on the heels of a backdown and rethink on its regional walking plan because of local authority and walking activist criticism, Greater Wellington Regional Council has released a lightweight regional cycling plan for public comment.
