  • Facts and Issues: Towards a National Infrastructure Plan
    ISBN: 978-0-478-33080-9 (online) NOT GOVERNMENT POLICY Note to Reader The Minister for Infrastructure indicated in his recent speech to the ‘Building Nations’ Symposium that the National Infrastructure Plan “…will evolve through time. The first draft should be ready early next year. Areas not identified in the plan will not necessarily be excluded from future public investment. It will be updated regularly - and no doubt we will get better at doing it.” This document is a precursor to the Plan. It contains a sector-by-sector description of New Zealand’s existing infrastructure, information about planned investment and a description of current policy settings. We would now like to answer a number of questions: 1. Base information: Is the sectoral analysis contained here an accurate and informative description of the sector? If not, what changes are required to make it so? 2. Missing issues: Are there important infrastructure issues not mentioned in this document? 3. Decision-making: This document suggests that for projects to contribute to community/national welfare and economic growth, they must have expected benefits (measured comprehensively) that are greater than their estimated costs (also measured comprehensively) – see the decision-making principles in the ‘Policy Context’ chapter. As well as considering distributional or equity considerations, are there other considerations that should be taken into account and if so, what is the case for that? 4. Cross-sectoral issues: What cross-sectoral issues are faced by operators/users of infrastructure in each sector? This document identifies a number of cross sectoral issues. Are there other cross-sectoral issues that should be included in a National Infrastructure Plan? 5.

  • ANNUAL INTEGRATED REPORT 2017 F.18A
    Reliable. Sustainable. Valuable. ANNUAL INTEGRATED REPORT 2017 F.18a Welcome – Tēnā koe For more than 150 years rail has played a vital role as an enabler of economic growth in New Zealand, evolving and adapting to meet customer needs despite significant geographical challenges and changing trends in trade. In the 1800s engineers designed a rail network that could operate in New Zealand’s uncompromising landscape, implementing wooden infrastructure that ran across swamps, rugged mountains, dense forests and wide rivers, to connect otherwise isolated communities and industries to the market. Much has changed since KiwiRail’s humble beginnings in 1863. Wooden infrastructure has been replaced by more resilient materials and today we look to advanced technological solutions to ensure the safety of the network and our people. To this day KiwiRail’s rail network continues to connect businesses, communities, importers and exporters to the world. As history shows, rail is adept at changing its services to meet the evolving needs of industry. As port flows increase and commuter demands continue to grow, KiwiRail is developing dynamic and innovative solutions to meet New Zealand’s changing transport requirements. 2 | Reliable. Sustainable.
