Guy welcomes fast-tracking for Transmission Gully
Otaki MP Nathan Guy says its great news that Transmission Gully could be fast-tracked through the resource consent process.
“There is no doubt in my mind this is a road of national significance with major importance to the Wellington region and our state highway network.
“The National Government has streamlined the consent process for projects of national significance, allowing for quicker consents and less delays.
“Groups and individuals with any concerns will still be able to make a submission and have their say which is an important part of the process.
“There has been decades of talk, but finally the National Government has the guts and vision to commit to building Transmission Gully.
“Once completed it will mean safer, quicker journeys and be a real boost to the regional economy.
“I’ve campaigned for years to get Transmission Gully built and I will continue to push for progress,” said Mr Guy.
