Parking tomorrow

Parking tomorrow

The situation will be improved in the near future.

The Wai-te-ata road extension, below the gymnasium, will hold about 60 cars. It will be open as soon as the engineers find it safe and it is prepared. A danger of subsidence had to be investigated and corrected. But, until the new arts block is finished, the only connection between this park and varsity, will be via Wai-te-ata road.

Another possibility, though further in the future, is a park to the south of Easterfield building. When a cut is prepared from the building through to the valley, a flat area, made of spoil from the new building excavation, will perhaps make a feasible parking area.

As far as the Vice-Chancellor is concerned, the only immediately available measure to ease parking, is to enforce the regulations. The situation is not being ignored. This is not just our problem, Wellington has had it for years
