Why has the obviously sensible idea of a new bus, bike and walking bridge alongside the existing one been kept secret? We can assume it was sketched onto the map when the Northern Busway was planned. The intention to demolish those Northcote Point houses finally makes sense.
I am pleased that this simpler, less expensive, but far more functional approach, is now on the table. My hope is that excellent design skills are being employed to create a fresh, elegant, enduring form that complements, rather than duplicates, the existing structure.
Before I even got to the bottom and clicked on the music, I had "White Valiant" in mind. There's something about that song that sends shivers up my spine. Brilliant piece, to my mind.
A letter I flicked to the Herald today:

Bloody Chloe Swarbrick, future PM of NZ?
Oh, maybe it's your title that put "White Valiant" in my thoughts......
What's a Xi'an 37? I've been to Xi'an. Twice. Last time I was working there on a big logistics project. Not many bicycles in Xi'an.
