After months of deliberation and discussion, the Government has decided not to move forward with the cycle bridge that was planning to go across Auckland’s Waitematā Harbour, in light of many Aucklanders not feeling like their city is cycle friendly.  

The cycleway bridge project came about after many years of protesting, including Bike Auckland’s Liberate the Lane protest earlier this year, a campaign calling for a 3 month trial this summer to convert a lane of the Harbour Bridge for cycling. 

This morning Zazi spoke with Communications Manager for Bike Auckland, Mary-Margaret Slack, to hear her view on this decision, and see whether Bike Auckland is upset with the change or have other alternatives that could solve this goal of wanting to connect these parts of Auckland.
