Transit Reluntance 

 

Here are some of examples of Transit's on-going reluntance to seriously consider the provision of a walkway /  cycleway over the Auckland Harbour Bridge:

Dec 11, 2007 letter from Transit's CEO Rick van Barnefeld to Parliament's Transport and Industrial Relations Committee   
   
   
   
   
   

 

 

 

"there are significant technical and social problems with such facilities" TJ Brown, Transit letter dated 29 November 1999

"it is not possible to retrofit such facilities"  Wayne McDonald, Transit letter dated 19 January 2001

Rick van Barneveld, CEO of Transit does his bit to undermine the importance of a walkway /  cycleway over the Auckland Harbour Bridge by questioning "if that is a prioritry for Auckland" in this front page article of the NZ Herald, dated 27 October 2007.
