The team behind a major Dunedin cycleway project say cuts to government funding mean it will have to be drastically scaled down.
Dunedin Tunnels Trail Trust chairman Gerard Hyland said the ambition to create a fully accessible trail from Mosgiel to Dunedin was in doubt after the latest New Zealand Transport Agency Waka Kotahi (NZTA) fund revealed no extra funding for cycleways in the city."
NZTA had already indicated there wouldn’t be funding in this round.
"The council will support us, but we’re not going to have the top-end cycleway we hoped for."
