CBC is in the process of being liquidated because of our inability to pay court costs. This web site is no longer active and is maintained as a reference only.

Want to do something about the Bypass?

The first thing to do is to contact us. We are always open to new ideas, so if you have an idea we will do all we can to support you. If you'd just like to get involved, we will do our best to find something that interests you - there's always loads going on. We respect people's commitments - there is never any pressure to do more than you feel that you can.

Alternatively, apply some political pressure - write to the Council, your local MP, or the Minister of Transport asking them to stop the bypass. And write to the paper - both politicians and newspapers use the letters pages as a crude barometer of public opinion. Check our letter writing guide for tips and email addresses.

Please vote in the City Council elections later this year, but only vote for people who pledge to stop the bypass. Tell your friends that the Bypass stinks and ask them to do the same.

CBC is supported by volunteers and relies on donations to fund campaigns. Every little bit helps, so please support us and make a donation.

How Does CBC Work?
CBC works to facilitate communication and to enable all people to find their voice. CBC provides inspiration and leadership by empowering people to make a difference. We believe in community responsibility and active power sharing.

CBC works by consensus and welcomes new energy and new ideas. We believe in mutual support, fun and friendship.

CBC is a voluntary community-based organisation. People who are interested in our vision for Wellington are encouraged to help us in ways that they enjoy. CBC's energy, resources and ideas are based on people taking responsibility, having fun and doing something they believe in.
