At the end of this month I’ll be giving two talks in Wellington at the New Zealand Planning Institute’s annual conference. I’ll be discussing – what else – urban gondolas, this website and the issue of disruptive technologies and insurgent ideas.
As a fair bit of The Gondola Project’s readership hails from New Zealand, I’m thinking of scheduling a meet-up for any readers/contributors/commenters who might come from the Wellington area or will be there for the conference. It would be great to finally put names to faces and learn a bit about what’s going on in New Zealand from an urbanist perspective. Oh, and we can talk about gondolas, too, I guess.
If you’re interested, send me an email at gondola (at) creativeurbanprojects (dot) com.

I take it you have searched wellington’s transport.
I like the trolleybuses (although they annoyingly don’t run on weekends). The Funicular is worth a visit. Wellingtons rail system is quite good for such a small city, even if the rolling stock/network is very dated.’
I don’t plan to be down in wellington in the near future sorry, but enjoy your trip anyway
