Press Release – Auckland Transport
Auckland’s first ‘Rainbow Crossing’ is coming to Karangahape Road.
The crossing will be installed in front of St Kevin’s Arcade, hopefully in time to mark the end of Auckland Pride Month.
The design will include the colours of the Progress Pride Flag, a more recent design created by international artist Daniel Quasar.
John Nottage, co-chair of Auckland Transport’s Rainbow Network says that including the colours of the Progress Pride Flag, will potentially make it the first in the country of its type.
“This version of the flag includes a five-coloured chevron on the original Rainbow Flag to place greater emphasis on inclusion and progression.
