Candid recognition of Auckland's transport issues applauded
Recognition from the very top of Auckland's transport issues is gratifying, the Employers and Manufacturers Association says.
"We welcome the Prime Minister's candid recognition today of the transport congestion limiting Auckland's productivity," said Kim Campbell, EMA's chief executive.
"The government's efforts to make an early start on the AMETI- East West link in particular are to be applauded.
"We look forward to a more detailed dialogue on the ways and means that these projects could be funded and to accelerate their start date."
