Movement Cycling Group taking action to the high court over Harbour Bridge cycleway decision - Heather du Plessis-Allan Drive

Auckland Harbour Bridge won't have trial lanes for walking and cycling, Waka Kotahi NZ Transport Agency Board confirmed today.

In a statement today, Waka Kotahi said it is "strongly committed to providing a safe network for walking and cycling" in the Auckland region, integrated with public transport, to "support a shift to active and shared modes with better climate outcomes".

However, it says it cannot support a trial of lane reallocation on the Auckland Harbour Bridge due to "significant" health and safety issues.

Movement Cycling Group's Bevan Woodward joined Heather du Plessis Allan Drive to defend the cycleway trial.
