Extending the Capital Connection passenger train service between Palmerston North and Wellington out to Whanganui was one of the big ideas submitters have asked Horizons Regional Council to take on. \
\
Submitters have had their say on what they want public transport in the Whanganui region to look like in the next year in feedback to Horizons’ draft Regional Public Transport Plan. \
\
There were 123 submissions – five were late – and 27 have asked to speak at a Horizons hearing on Thursday, June 9 in Palmerston North.
