Do you have fun going through Rimutaka Incline tunnels and across bridges on your cyclewalk?
The Rimutaka Railway trust are wanting to put a train back on this track and remove walkerscycles away from these tunnels completely.
http://www.gw.govt.nz/assets/Parks-and-Recreation/Pakuratahi-Forest/Rimutaka-Railway-proposal.pdfThe Rimutaka Rail Trail is my favourite ride in Wellington. Indeed there are too few off-road family cycle tracks within the Greater Wellington area and I have taken great joy in showing this to my friends and taking my nephews & niece on this track with the novelty of going through tunnels and across bridges.
Please read the proposal and go to the Gw.govt.nz website http://www.gw.govt.nz/rimutaka-railway-proposal/ to comment. I am hoping you will show your support for retention of this cycleway through the tunnels which are a major drawcard for walkers and cyclists to this track. The new proposal is to pull cyclists away from tunnels and bridges completely so the smelly train can proceed through here.
http://www.rimutaka-incline-railway.org.nz/project/new-walkwayPlease click on the links above and have a read. The gw.govt.nz website has access to an online submission form or you can email .
Make your voice heard and take the time to submit this soon as it is due before Jan 31st.

Great stuff Lynda! I’ve just quickly banged off an online submission using info from your post.
I definitely encourage others to be pro-active too…it doesn’t take long and is a good micro-break from work
