Cancer surgeon and would-be developer Guy Hingston, who has ambitious fast-track development plans for Queenstown's Fernhill, is offering to build stage three of the Queenstown District Council's planned CBD bypass. Stage one of the bypass opened early last year, but stages two and three are not currently funded for construction. Hingston says building the road, through council local purpose reserve (pictured) and a recreation reserve — to connect Thompson St to a relocated One Mile roundabout — is a "no-brainer" because it would provide an alternative to the often-congested Shotover St.
