Neil Holdom: New Plymouth mayor labels Mount Messenger bypass project criticism 'storm in a teacup'

  • Summary

  • New Plymouth's mayor is hitting out at those opposing the Mount Messenger bypass project.

    A decision by Waka Kotahi to give construction workers pies has been under the spotlight and deemed wasteful by the Taxpayers Union.

    Waka Kotahi prices the pies at $400 a month.

    But mayor Neil Holdom says the pie criticism is a storm in a teacup.

    "And it's a reflection of the desperation, because most New Zealanders have moved on and realised- actually it's happening, it's a good thing and we should look after the workers that are on site."
