Talk:Auckland Harbour Bridge
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Has anyone got information on the fault with the clip-on sections, circa 1985, where traffic was limited on the clip-ons, until the structures underneath were strengthened? Also, there was a toll booth on the northern part of the motorway approaching the bridge, this was not used from what date? Mjm1964 10:07, 14 May 2005 (UTC)
- An embedded comment cites http://www.theviaduct.com/theviaduct/history/1980.asp to give 30 March 1984 when the toll boothes were removed.Tenbaset 10:49, August 13, 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Length of Bridge
Looking on the web I don't see anything to support the current length stated as 1.15 km. Most sites report either 3348 or 3350 feet, which is 1020-1 meters. The Transit NZ document http://www.transit.govt.nz/content_files/AHB/1951-1961.pdf lists it as 3348 feet so I've taken this value. XLerate 22:01, 9 March 2007 (UTC)
