Transport authorities are tipped to announce an alternative design for SkyPath on Auckland's Harbour Bridge in a move that could delay its construction, supporters of the project say.
The much anticipated mega-project aims to build a shared path allowing cyclists, scooter-users and walkers to cross the bridge.
Having been mooted for more than a decade, the Government announced last August it would fully fund the $67 million project.
Then in February, the NZ Transport Agency announced it was reviewing SkyPath's design options and that a business case was well underway with construction possibly beginning early next year.
