Let's Get Wellington Moving has survived another day.

Councillors have voted nine to seven against a No Confidence motion, panning the $7.4 billion plan.

It includes scrapping cars in some CBD streets in favour of more green transit.

Changes to the Golden Mile - from Lambton Quay to Courtney Place - will also go ahead.

NZ Herald reporter Georgina Campbell says mayor Tory Whanau was vocal in today's meeting.

"She did acknowledge the opposition to the plan from some businesses, as well as some of her peers. And she has said communication with businesses could have been better."
