The Auckland Downtown Ferry Terminal is the hub of Auckland’s ferry network, a network that began in 1905 and which connects Auckland’s CBD with the wider Auckland area.
After one hundred years of use, the historic piers that make up the Downtown Ferry Terminal now require repairs to the structural fabric beneath the deck to maintain them in a safe condition for the ongoing use of Auckland’s ferry commuters.
ARTA is currently taking action to restore these piers.

Stage 1:
(due to be completed mid-2009)is the area showing most deterioration and requiring urgent remediation to maintain safe access and operations.
Stages 2 and 3:
(due to be completed through mid-2010) is considered less critical but still in need of remediation to maintain the structures and extend their working life.
Renewal works will also be carried out to the underside of the pedestrian promenade between Pier 2 and Princes Wharf.
ARTA will be working closely with its contractors to ensure any inconvenience for ferry users and other stakeholders will be minimised.
Ferry services will continue to use the Downtown Ferry Terminal during the construction period.
