Manage episode 492247931 series 3032727
Questions over Christchurch City Council planning to spend $200 thousand on a shuttle bus study.
Environment Canterbury wants to stop the proposed resurrection of a free inner-city shuttle, saying 1800 bus movements each weekday is enough.
A 2023 law change means ECan will get the final say.
Mayor Phil Mauger admits he voted for the costly study.
But he told John MacDonald ECan didn't mention anything until it was included in the annual plan.
He says there's no use spending the money if it doesn't get the green light, so council should re-think the idea.
