The regional councillors who wrote this morning’s newspaper op ed were, incidentally, the only current ones to challenge the imminent trolleybus abandonment!
IMHO, Adelaide would have been a better example for a fact-finding visit, being a long-extant system in the process of extension (comparable to the role that LRT should play in Wellington), but any politician interest in LRT is to be welcomed.
