Haven't been driving in town for a while and noticed they have done away with the left turn off Wellington quay(U2 hotel) onto Parliment St anyone have the offical line on this and what the thinking was??

It's been like that for a few years now, but yes, it's nuts. The response I got was:

Traffic Management in the City Centre is designed to keep traffic flowing as smoothly as possible, provide priority to public transport modes and provide local access and servicing for businesses and residents in the City Centre. The current Traffic Management Plan aims to provide an equitable balance between these needs.

So that's OK then.

Cheers Thoie, they must have changed alot of bus routes then as there was quite a few that would start off outside what use to be Virgin and take that left to head up towards ChristChurch.
