 Highway Action Trust - The truth about Auckland's transport crisis
For example, to travel from Manukau City to Waitakere City you have no choice but to travel through Auckland City, a City which does not want more motorways within in its boundaries.
The total region should be one city with one agenda instead of 7 districts plus the ARC all thinking of themselves.
Auckland City is effectively an Island surrounded by two large harbours which makes it difficult for people needing to travel through Auckland to access other locations.

 CBRD - Histories - The M606 Bradford Spur
Arriving at Bradford via the motorway is not a pleasant experience and is hardly a warm welcome to a city that is still trying to make itself look modern and appealing after making its own heart into a monstrous concrete mess.
Jim Rayner mentions an urban myth about the project: "one of the planning officers owned a property on the route of the proposed M606 route into the city centre and did not want to see it happen!" Whether or not this was the case, any reason for completing the M606 had suddenly vanished.
The Highways Agency is also prioritising plans to give the southern end free-flowing access to the M62 to the east, since a large proportion of traffic is now using the motorway connection instead of the A647 to reach Bradford from Leeds, something apparently not envisaged in Chain Bar's original design.
