Cycle lane proposal for Auckland Harbour Bridge

It'll never happen.
Imagine all the suicidal people getting easier access. Lemmings will have competition finding a spot on the edge to hurl themselves off from.

Put one underneath.

Just have a path leading up to each side of the bridge..... then you jump on a bus that is set up to accomidate bicycles. get the bus over and then hop off at the other end.

I don't know the shore very well. but for the city end the bus stop by victoria park just before the motorway onramp would be perfect.

Surely cheaper than 5 million to buy 1 or 2 buses solely for this purpose.

$1 each way.



Logical solution to me, what you guys think?

They did have a bus a number of years ago that went from Stafford Road to Point Erin Pools. It Died a natual death

A high fence will stop this.

Put one underneath.

See my earlier post about the one they put under the Mangere bridge. It's a crime spree waiting to happen.

Already noted, but is there such a high demand for lycra that people will rob them?

Oh dear...making the bridge viable for pedestrians and cyclist is a great idea and as usual the majority knock it.

Now when was the last time the majority voted for something suggested by the authorities...now when was the Treaty signed...
