Economic Analysis

  • The project has been assessed with the “do minimum”

scenario only and no consideration of alternatives

  • Real costs have been ignored;

– induced land use – more accidents – forced car ownership and operating costs – increased urban sprawl – reduced public transport – provision of car parking – air pollution, noise – environmental degradation – stormwater effects – loss of property values

Lack of Evidence

There is no evidence to support improved travel times and reduced congestion The opposite is often the case More roads lead to more VKT and more congestion The Wellington Inner City Bypass is a case in point
