Waka Kotahi to make decision today on cycle lane across Auckland Harbour Bridge

Waka Kotahi will today decide whether to have a dedicated cycle lane across the Auckland Harbour Bridge.

It had originally decided to have a lane for just special events, but a cycling lobby group threatened legal action.

National Party Transport Spokesperson Simeon Brown says Minister Michael Wood should have been firmer in denying the lane.

Brown told Kate Hawkesby it would be a total waste of time and money.

He says closing a lane would be expensive and use of the lane may not be that high, especially on rainy days.
