Description

Businesses along Auckland's waterfront say they need reassurance the Wynyard Crossing Bridge WILL re-open before the SailGP regatta in January. Tickets to the global sailing championship which the city is hosting for the first time, went on sale today and are set to sell out. But local businesses say the broken pedestrian bridge has not only taken away foot traffic but also their livelihoods and with summer around the corner, they're hopeful SailGP will also bring back the much-needed crowds, Jessica Hopkins reports.
