Wellington City Council was criticised by Waka Kotahi for not taking steps to make cycling safer on Thorndon Quay. Wellington City Council has been scolded by Waka Kotahi NZ Transport Agency for a poor track record of cyclist and pedestrian safety, in a report obtained by Stuff. The council was given a grade of “significant improvement needed” on road safety in the Waka Kotahi 2020 Investment Audit. David Unwin/Stuff Green MP Julie Anne Genter said Wellington City Council’s efforts on bike lanes were not good enough. A petition to change the angle of the street parking will be brought to Wellington City Council on Wednesday.
