Restore Passenger Rail met with Transport Minister Michael Wood earlier today to discuss restoring an affordable passenger rail service.
The restoration of a simple and affordable railway service in Wellington has been the goal of the group's string of protests, which have ground to a halt after they secured a meeting with the Transport Minister.
Spokesperson Rosemary Penwarden says that the group is frustrated with the outcome of this meeting, as Michael Wood says that he's unable to restore a passenger rail service due to funding constraints.
"Reasonable freedom of movement, that's a human right. This Government's priorities appear to take no notice of New Zealanders who don't own a car, can't afford it, or don't live in our biggest cities."
