He takes the train from his house into Auckland, but Prime Minister Christopher Luxon is not a fan of Te Huia.
For public transport to work it has to be cost effective and a better alternative to travelling by car, Luxon said. Te Huia is not currently there, in his eyes.
“Public transport works when you’ve got a good density of population, and a really good alternative solution,” Luxon said.
