The Auckland War Memorial Museum is hoping to open part of the building within days, as it loses thousands of dollars daily after being forced to close because of an asbestos scare.
The museum has been closed since 10 May, after asbestos dust was found in Te Marae Ātea Māori Court and the Pacific Galleries.
It was then discovered in the Grand Foyer - a major evacuation route for the building. The museum has been waiting on Fire and Emergency to review and approve an alternative exit before it can reopen.
