Been through it have you?


I go through it everyday.


It's like a bridge, but upsidedown.




Sylvester Stallone and Viggo Mortensen would make short work of it.

It's changed a two lane flyover into a two lane flyunder.

For a great deal of money.

well he used to be able to run across the road - now he has to jump down, run across and then jump up again on the otherside - think of all that extra effort

I like it (went through yesterday for the first time). It's got barrier arms to keep all those crims from South Auckland out of the North Shore.

The best thing about Finance Minister Bill English\'s latest Budget is that it does finally signal a much greater role for the private sector in the New Zealand economy. And another step along the way to extract this country from the political cul-de-sac in which Helen Clark\'s Labour Government parked us.

yeah - I loved it.

I think the idea is to open up a 3rd lane that I see in the above picture and then pillage the 2 northbound lanes, turning them into southbound lanes - effectivley making a bypass of the Auckland CBD

I might be reading you wrong, but the tunnel is only going northbound. Transit said it was because the gradient would be too steep for southbound traffic. The old viaduct is being converted to four southbound lanes and from what i saw the other day, it looks like there will be barriers between lanes 2/3 that will stop anyone in lanes 3/4 getting to port or northwest.

The Tunnel will 'eventually' be 3 lanes northbound only. The existing Victoria park flyover, which was 2 north bound & 2 south bound will be changed to 3 south - it needs to be resurfaced before this can happen. Also some debate as to if the Wellington Street (Northbound) onramp will ever be re-opened.

A mate was involved in the design process of the Fire & Evac system that's installed - those turbo fans use 50+ kw of juice each... there's an onsite deluge system for suppressing fires and there's also a manual backup of that system. The exit egress tunnel/walkway on the left behind the fire doors (rated @ 2 hours) is PPV'd, so if something does go wrong, joe public should be pretty well looked after.

They better hurry up and make a decision because it's already been built.
