Unpacking the debate around moving Auckland's port - The Front Page

Wayne Brown has long been an advocate for moving the Ports of Auckland up to Northland.  

Now that he is Auckland’s mayor, it’s a goal that Brown may be able to make a reality.

However, while many Aucklanders would love to see the cars and containers go, the scale of such a move has made for a contentious debate

So what would be involved in moving the port, and should it happen? How long until Aucklanders get a waterfront with a view?

Today, Damien is joined by economist, and advocate for moving the port, Shane Vuletich, to hear why he believes it’s time to change the look of Auckland’s waterfront.
