Harbor Bridge Information

 It opened on 30 May 1959 and in its first year averaged 13,493 cars a day, a shock for planners who had predicted 8250 a day by 1965. Between 1967 and 1969 the bridge was widened by adding two Japanese-designed dual-lane steel box extensions to its outside.

New Zealand's best-known bridge opened after four years of construction. The need for better transport links between Auckland city and the North Shore had long been the subject of inquiry and agitation. The Auckland Harbour Bridge Authority was set up in 1950 to raise funds and organise construction.

For most of its history the Auckland Harbour Bridge has been a victim of its own success. The intended five lanes were reduced to four to save money. It opened on  30 May 1959 and in its first year averaged 13,493 cars a day, a shock for planners who had predicted 8250 a day by 1965.

The harbour bridge is this long 1,020 m and how old is the  Harbour bridge 61.When the 146m-long central span was floated across the harbour before being lifted into place there were over 30 mph winds. More than 1,000 labourers worked on the project, including 180 sent out from the UK. 4 men fell to their deaths during the bridge's construction. There is a memorial to them on the North Shore.

The bridge is 1017 m long, and used 5670 tonnes of steel, 17,160 cubic m of concrete and 6800 litres of paint.

About 170,000 vehicles cross the bridge each day as of 2019, including more than 1,000 buses, which carry 38% of all people crossing during the morning peak.

There are actually three bridges within the Auckland Harbour Bridge.

In 1959, 11,205 vehicles crossed the bridge daily. Cars and taxis were charged 2 shillings and 6 pence - 25c. The toll on the Auckland Harbour Bridge was abolished in 1984.

One of the possible routes for a Cook Strait bridge or tunnel Cape Terawhiti to Arapaoa Island, the shortest point between the two islands, is 22km. But the cost of a bridge is not impossible for New Zealand. The 38km Lake Pontchartrain Bridge in Louisiana, United States is the longest in the Western world.

The first European to arrive in New Zealand was the Dutch explorer Abel Tasman in 1642.

The preferred design for a walking and cycling route across Auckland's Harbour Bridge is a 5m-wide path flanking the southbound traffic side, linking Westhaven to Northcote Point and connecting with the future SeaPath route.

4157.41 km and How high is the Auckland Harbour bridge 43 m
