AT's Ferry Services Manager, Gareth Willis says passengers can expect minimal disruption to ferry services.
“We will continue to work closely with all operators and the contractor, STF, to ensure we minimise disruption to the public while the works are taking place."
The repair will be completed by STF Limited who are experienced marine contractors, having spent more than 20 years working on Auckland's wharves.
