An Auckland woman living near the Harbour Bridge is angry and shocked people were never told neighbouring land was contaminated with heavy metals from the bridge.
RNZ revealed the transport agency has known since 2010 its bridge maintenance polluted the Stokes Point Reserve with lead, zinc and copper.
The levels were high but a health assessment found they'd likely be "within acceptable health risk".
Auckland Council says because their study found there's no ongoing risk, they didn't need to tell the public.
Jordan Bond reports.
