Just a quick reminder that today at 12pm (Tuesday, 13th), Stuart Donovan and Shane Martin will be diving into the newly announced Going for Housing Growth (GfHG) plan. This initiative is a key part of the Government’s strategy to tackle New Zealand’s housing shortage. Stu and Shane will break down the main concepts and explore what this could mean for us here in Aotearoa. It should be an insightful and informative session. Even if you can't join live, don't worry—you'll receive a recording if you register using the link below. A big thanks to MRCagney and Motu Economic and Public Policy Research for making this happen! https://lnkd.in/gz5hjTz3

Could a bridge between the North and South Islands be feasible? Steven Burgess is joining Scott Ebbett for a webinar on 14th March to talk about good places - what makes a good place, and what does parking have to do with it?   Read on to find out more!   #MRCagney #congestioncharging #publictransport #parking #goodplaces  #crl

Last week we said haere rā to our wonderful interns 👋 Ashley and Chris joined us for the summer while on break from their university studies. They both jumped fully into life at MRCagney and added to the energy in the office. Alongside supporting the team with day to day work, and gaining exposure to the different types of projects MRCagney is currently working on, they carried out their own research projects. Chris is studying civil engineering and sociology at the University of Auckland. He worked on a project titled “Metrics that Matter” which looked at the current use and collection of public transport metrics in New Zealand by regional authorities. Ashley is heading into his final year of his planning degree at the University of Auckland. His project was titled "Auckland City Centre Metrics" and looked at how people currently access the city centre and what makes a city tick. He researched various trends of active transport and conducted many site visits to gather data.   It was great getting to know them both and we wish them all the best for their studies this year and beyond!
