Hundreds of people poured on to Queens Wharf yesterday to protest plans by Ports of Auckland to reclaim more of Waitemata Harbour.
The protest has been sparked by plans by the port company to begin building two massive wharf extensions and Auckland Council voting to ease rules for further reclamation.
The ports company plans to begin construction of the wharf extensions next month and says it will need to reclaim 3ha of seabed between them.
