The state of Auckland: Is the country's biggest city adapting for the future?
Description
A new report has suggested that the country’s biggest city is going backwards.
The second annual State of the City report, which compares Auckland’s progress against nine major cities around the globe, has shown that things are on the backwards trend.
While outside factors like the Anniversary weekend floods, inflation and post-Covid recovery contributed to the worse than expected outcomes, the report highlights a number of longer-term problem areas that the city needs to address.
Today on The Front Page, NZ Herald senior writer Simon Wilson joins us to analyse the state of Auckland, and how the city can improve.
