Actually, you'd have a bit of a hub at the Botany Town Centre shopping mall which is all of a 20 minute walk away.

We live in one of these so-called well designed suburbs where all of the space available is used. I live up a right of way - really just an extension of the street with about another 10 or so houses.
I wonder if this will work
Mission View Drive - Google Maps
That probably won't show it up too well. But at the end of the road at the big circle bit there is a small right of way. As the satellite map shows, not a lot of wasted space.
Last night, I was looking at alternate routes into Auckland and was actually looking around your area to due the stark absence of rail there (though I thought you were further north). It clearly could use some connection to commuter rail - I was thinking of something leaving the Eastern Line then running down to connect with the branch line currently being built from Wiri into central Manukau. But judging by the terrain and land use, I've no idea how on earth you'd get a line through there unless it's underground, and that would cost shitloads so it probably wouldn't be economically viable.
im not reading a whiny fucking blog .. will have to look throgh the thread for hillarity i suppose

Oh, so I see he's not Mr Happy any more.
oh sweet, happy meals for everyone
There's potential for a rail line to follow part of Te Irirangi Drive, which goes some of the way between Botany and Manukau. But yeah, our land use here is fucked.
But there has been real life talk of a rail connection between Botany and the airport. It would actually be a good idea, instead of the 3x weekly bus.
PS I'm East Auckland, not South Auckland.
I'm fucking stupid. I was holding the remote not five minutes ago. I haven't moved in that time, and now i can't find the fucking thing.
Edit: Wait..............found it
Happy Centhreadery, Postwhorehouse!

Yeah, I noticed that part would be the most workable. Trying to run a line into the central city looks fucking impossible without going underground for extremely long periods.
And yes, I'm aware you're east Auckland. But it tends to be a good idea to interconnect the network and it seems logical to send the Wiri - Manukau line up north. I still have my doubts about the usefulness of the Manukau spur if it stays as short as it's planned to be, but hey, at least it's new rail.
