AT funds bike rack

The ongoing saga of how to get a bike rack installed at the Gulf Harbour ferry terminal has taken another turn, with Auckland Transport (AT) agreeing to fund it.

After first requesting a rack that ferry users can tie their bikes to back in February 2016, the Hibiscus & Bays Local Board had all but given up hope of having AT progress and fund the installation.

Local board members decided to fund the project themselves from their transport capital fund, however AT recently advised members that it could make it happen as part of a cycling improvements programme.

There is no idea of a timeframe or cost of the bike rack installation at this stage.
