I presented to Auckland Councils Transport, Infrastructure, and Resilience Committee last week about AT's last minute Project K changes. Felt like a pretty positive reception.
Simon Wilson did a bit of a write up today in the Herald about the issue:

'Stuck in traffic': AT slammed over CRL station precinct plans
The CRL should create a more pedestrian-friendly city, but critics say that won't happen.

Putting aside the abject failure to uphold agreed plans (no small feat by AT!) The secrecy in of this is really corrosive to public engagement. It's a betrayal of trust - projects decided by a few figures agitating behind closed doors, plus a meek authority. The lack of transparency is remarkable.
We are spending $5.5 billion on a transformational rail project, only for Auckland Transport to bring back cars and traffic right outside stations, by last minute redesigning a well supported project.
Something needs to change.
