A new bridge costing $685 million is to be built for walkers and cyclists crossing Auckland’s Waitematā Harbour.
It is hoped construction can begin mid-2022, in a plan unveiled just five days after cycling lobbyists broke through a police barrier and rode over the existing Harbour Bridge, demanding action.
Transport Minister Michael Wood said once begun, the new structure is expected to take five years to complete, and work will continue on interim use of existing harbour bridge lanes for cycling and walking.
“A stand-alone structure is the safest option that will not only provide a walking and cycling option for commuters but creates an outstanding piece of tourism infrastructure,” said Wood.

Two lanes on the Auckland Harbour Bridge were closed for a period on Sunday, as cyclists took over two northbound lanes.
The rally was organised by Bike Auckland, which is calling for Waka Kotahi NZ Transport Agency to allocate one of the structure’s eight lanes to cyclists for three months over summer, when traffic is at its quietest.
Bike Auckland chairwoman Barb Cuthbert said securing a way across the Waitematā Harbour for cyclists was “the most important cycling issue in Auckland”.
But NZTA spokesman Brett Gliddon said making traffic lanes on the Harbour Bridge available to cyclists in the short term was “not as simple as some advocates imply”.
“The bridge was not designed for a walking and cycling function, and there are true and genuine safety and wider network issues that need to be worked through and balanced,” he said.
What do you think: Should Waka Kotahi NZTA allow a cycle lane trial over the Auckland Harbour Bridge? Vote in the poll below or share your thoughts in the comments.

The Voices for Freedom leaflet, delivered in the Northcote and Birkenhead areas on the North Shore, included eight points that cast doubt on the safety or efficacy of the vaccine.
Auckland University vaccinologist and associate professor Helen Petousis-Harris recently discredited the leaflet.
Halbert said he got five complaints from locals who had received the leaflet in their mailboxes this week.
“It’s disappointing people are actively trying to spread misinformation around our community and prey on people who are vaccination hesitant already.”
He believed the leaflet had been designed to scaremonger locals and delivered to align with the opening of the North Shore’s first vaccination clinic in the Highbury Shopping Centre on Monday.
“This is a direct action on their behalf to undermine our local vaccine centre and to stop our local people from going in and being immunised.”
