Hi, any thoughts on the Christchurch stadium? Quite frustrating that in the same week we find we "can't afford" to get buses to a healthy standard, a council pushes the limits of affordability for this kind of project.

Indeed. I haven't had the bandwidth to focus on it. On the face of it, the spending would generate much better returns on fixing the basics of the roads and ensuring enough housing is built. Seems to me the Addington stadium is compact and does the trick. And is already there. But I'd need to have a much closer look at it all to have a more confident and useful view.
A good example of why local council infrastructure maintenance gets starved of funds - new drains vs a new stadium? Easy to pick the winner as regards sex appeal.
