About this listen
In this final episode of our first season of IMBY, Rachel Sturgess takes a closer look at the corridor of land set aside by KiwiRail that winds through Onehunga.
After the Auckland Light Rail decided against the use of this corridor, the government has now indicated that they might push ahead with heavy rail along that route anyway.This raises questions about the land's value, ecological significance, and historical relevance.
Matt Lowry from Greater Auckland speaks to the merits of the use of the land for heavy rail, while local residents Paul and Echo Janman from Onehunga Peoples Garden shed light on the importance of retaining this green space, its role in mitigating environmental impacts, and the land's historical heritage.
