In case the minister hasn't noticed, the westlink is already 4 lanes in each direction, its the removal of the toll building & replacement with an overhead gantry scanner thats at issue. He's also contradicting the NRA, who target completion for August 2008.
Some solace in the government finally seeing fit to borrow for T21; 5,6 & 8 billion through to 2009. Its clearer than ever that Government priority is roads with lip service to rail, despite comment, all roads are on or ahead of schedule.
