Local government didn't ask for another port study like in Auckland, trying to work out whether the Manakau Harbour port, which was very popular in the days of four-masted sailing ships—whether that would be a good place for the Government to decide to intervene in another part of the productive economy. I mean, they certainly didn't ask for a bike bridge over Auckland Harbour. What Aucklanders do want, though, is better public transport. They want better transport connections. Local government didn't ask for a new Mount Victoria Tunnel in Wellington either, which apparently delivers no extra lanes but provides for about 1,500 cyclists per year to use the existing tunnel. They didn't ask for that, and they certainly didn't ask for this bill.
