Kia ora neighbours, legal action next month against Auckland Council has been put on hold as the upgrade of downtown Queen St accelerates.

Some landlords and the Heart of the City retail promotion group had been due to mount a High Court challenge to the council’s project to make the retail strip more people-friendly and less of a traffic thoroughfare.
