• ☐  I prefer Lambton Quay and Willeston St

From Newtown to Kilbirnie, the line could go to the zoo with a tunnel to Kilbirnie, at a cost of $656m, or along Constable St and Crawford Road, at a cost of $444m. In other words, the tunnel option adds about $210m to the cost. Which do you prefer?

The $210m it would cost for the tunnel option could pay for over 4km of surface track. Which do you think would offer the best value for money?

• ☐  Neither: we can’t afford to spend more than $450m
