A perimeter tour in early June 2023 of the City Rail Link Mangawhau Station, Grafton, Uptown Auckland.

The tour was conducted soon after the ground-breaking of the second rail tunnel between Te Waihrotiu Station and Mangawhau Station by the Dame Whina Cooper Tunnel Boring Machine.

The stations and tunnels are now being fitted out in preparation for opening in late 2024.

Tour conducted by Piet UBELS, Development Response Manager
| Link Alliance | City Rail Link with Peter Mellalieu.
