Auckland Harbour Bridge
Auckland Harbour Bridge by @Thorvald (El Thorvaldo)

A Side 7 exclusive! Like Sydney's, but squarer and without footpaths, the Auckland Harbour Bridge is the second-longest bridge in the country. Originally built in 1958 for four lanes, traffic had tripled in less than ten years, necessitating two side bridges for a total of eight lanes. The barrier on the right is unfixed, and shifts lanes to adjust for morning v. evening traffic.

@Warehouse_Rabbit: I was gonna make a "Shelly or SHELL-y?" joke, but apparently they pulled out of the country in 2018. :p
