Many Kiwis want a walk and cycle path across Auckland's Harbour Bridge - so long as they don't have to pay for it.

We asked on the ONE News Facebook page whether people were in favour of the SkyPath project, which would connect the North Shore at Northcote Point with Westhaven near the city centre.

Pedestrians and cyclists would pay to use the $33 million path, with fares expected to be $3.50 for those paying in cash or $2 with an AT Hop card.

Those involved with the project hope it could open as early as 2016.

ONE News Facebook page user Hayden Stevenson, a Nelson resident, wrote that the project should go ahead so long as Aucklanders pay for it themselves.

"Personally as long as it is paid for by Auckland ONLY!!! as it does look like a good idea."

Amanda June Saunders says the proposed tolls for the crossing will put people off.

"Nobody will use it if it will be a toll footpath so what's the point."

Others voiced support for the project.

"Skypath or silly flag referendum? I'm no cyclist, but I know which one I prefer. Go the Skypath," Ant Lewis says.

Gary Smith says the SkyPath would be a "step in the right direction".

"As Nike would say - JUST DO IT!"

Bevan Mical says the project should be delayed until improvements are made to Auckland's motorways.

"Get the rest of the motorway running smoothly before you worry about cyclists and pedestrians."

Ian Berridge responded: "If there were more cyclists and pedestrians it would run smoother as way less cars."
