Auckland Harbour Crossing Stalls Again | Auckland News

The Transport Minister defends yet another costly harbour crossing report for Auckland, insisting this time the focus shifts from “why” to “how” — despite $106 million already spent. He insists a detailed business case will be ready by 2027, evaluating both bridge and tunnel options, and argues announcing a choice now would trigger endless questions about cost, funding, and delivery. He dismisses criticism that this is just rehashing old work, noting significant progress under prior governments and stressing cross-party support is vital for such a multi-billion-dollar project. Labour’s leader counters that three years of stalled progress has yielded little, calling the new announcement redundant — though he agrees a solid business case is essential for value.
