Auckland's City Rail Link - When will it finally open?
The Front Page - A podcast by NZ Herald
It has just been confirmed that Auckland’s City Rail Link opening has been delayed yet again, pushing out the opening date out to 2026. This comes off the back of numerous earlier delays and cost blow-outs and will only exacerbate the level of frustration in the city. The initial idea for the plan goes back to the 1920s, and delays have spread to the actual project. So how much longer will Auckland’s inner city remain a construction site? What has gone wrong with this project? And could it have repercussions for other major infrastructure plans around the city? Today on The Front Page, NZ Herald senior journalist Bernard Orsman takes Damien under the surface of the CRL situation to find out what’s going on.
