No. As for unsafe, they aren't allowing trucks on the clipons now. All these protests though, it doesn't work. They've said cyclists will have to wait years and years for the tunnel. |

Now these same people who it seems don't really want to cross the bridge want the government to spend multiple millions of our dollars on a carriageway just for them to not make use it. |

| 776401 | 2009-05-25 05:11:00 | I have made an excecutive decision. In future any pedestrian can use the Auckland Harbour Bridge to cross any time they want. In return I expect to be able to drive my car on the footpath any time *I* want. It's only fair I think. |

| 776402 | 2009-05-25 05:13:00 | Well you are allowed to cross a footpath when coming out of your driveway. | prefect (6291) | ||
| 776403 | 2009-05-25 05:51:00 | True. But that way I can only run two or three over at any one time. I was rather hoping for more than that! |

| 776404 | 2009-05-25 09:01:00 | It helps me understand how one loony could defy the cops in Napier for so long. I guess they were lucky he took his own life or they might all still be there. Anyway, I dont think we have a Police Force anymore, theyre all just Uniform Lovers. |
