Mayor backs second harbour crossing at Meola Reef
Several Auckland Councillors have come out against plans to reinvestigate a second Waitemata Harbour crossing from Meola Reef in Point Chevalier. The government has commissioned a detailed business case for an additional crossing, and it will look again at the option of a bridge from Meola Reef to the North Shore if Auckland Council wants that and is prepared to split the bill. The Mayor is keen, but some councillors aren't so much. Mayor Wayne Brown spoke to Lisa Owen.
