    That's the one. Thanks for the link to the article on the Greater Auckland site, which linked to this fantastic proposal for a rapid passenger rail service between Tamaki Makaurau, Waikato and Tauranga;

    In these days of oil wars and spiking fossil fuel prices, this proposal from 2017 looks even more prescient than it did at the time.

  5. "Grand Total for Auckland-Hamilton-Tauranga: $3,693,000,000 or the price of around 2.5 Roads of National Significance from National

    Note: Caution with the costs as some of the benefits of it spill over into freight as well by allowing more and faster freight trains on those two respective lines. So any track or tunnel upgrades need to bear this in mind as well..."

    An addendum to our discussion about the prognosis for fast trains in Aotearoa, Ben Ross has a fascinating proposal for rolling out electric-run 160km/hr passenger rail between Tamaki Makaurau, Kiririkroa, and Tauranga;
