Auckand Harbour Bridge has now reopened after previously being closed for on Sunday due to high winds.
"The Auckland Harbour Bridge is now fully OPEN, continue to take extra care if travelling today. Please be patient while congestion eases and regular traffic flow resumes in the region," Waka Kotahi NZTA said in a Tweet just after 2:05pm.
Waka Kotahi earlier said the bridge would remain closed until winds were at levels safe enough for travel.
Waka Kotahi said current bridge safety protocols require the closure of the bridge to traffic when sustained wind gusts of 90kmp/h or higher are affecting the bridge.
