[Review] for Vote Transport
Hon Bill English Minister of Finance 7.6 Executive Wing Parliament Buildings WELLINGTON Dear Bill VALUE FOR MONEY REVIEW – VOTE TRANSPORT Purpose This letter responds to your letter dated 17 December 2008 and the Cabinet Business Committee paper CBC (08) 563. In line with the letter and Cabinet paper, I have asked the Ministry to review Vote Transport to identify: • savings that could be freed up for Budget 2009; • programmes that are inconsistent with the government’s priorities and should be discontinued; • programmes that are inconsistent with the government’s priorities and should be looked into; • programmes and expenditure that are not effective or efficient; • areas where performance information is currently insufficient to judge effectiveness or efficiency and actions that are required to make improvements by the next review. Vote Transport summary A summary of the funding under Vote Transport is attached to this letter. It is separated between departmental and non-departmental funding. Departmental funding The Ministry of Transport’s departmental funding will decrease by $3.685 million over the next three years mainly due to the cessation of medium-term project funding. In addition to the planned decrease in funding, the Ministry has forecast unavoidable cost increases arising from existing commitments in relation to staff costs (salaries), building and other expenses. These are expected to add a further $3.377 million by 2011/2012, or 12 percent of the baseline funding of $28.4 million. My Chief Executive has made a commitment -

Case Study in Waikato Soils for the Hamilton Section of the Waikato Expressway
Yong, I. & Clayton, P.B. (2017) Application of Soil Specific Correction Factors for Liquefaction Assessment: Case Study in Waikato Soils for the Hamilton Section of the Waikato Expressway. Proc. 20th NZGS Geotechnical Symposium. Eds. GJ Alexander & CY Chin, Napier Application of soil specific correction factors for liquefaction assessment: case study in Waikato soils for the Hamilton section of the Waikato expressway Irene Yong Geotechnical Engineer, Beca Auckland, NZ [email protected] Philip Clayton Technical Director, Beca Auckland, NZ. [email protected] (Corresponding author) Keywords: Fines Correction, Ic Cutoff, Liquefaction, Hamilton Ash, Waikato. ABSTRACT The four-lane, 21.8 kilometre long, Hamilton Section of the Waikato Expressway is the largest roading project undertaken in this region’s history and one of the larger projects currently being undertaken in New Zealand. Many of the seventeen expressway bridges in the Hamilton Section are underlain by Pleistocene soils assessed as having a high liquefaction potential. Typically the soils encountered are volcanic in origin either as primary tephra deposits or reworked volcanically derived material. A number of researchers have noted the potential for misclassification of such soils by the CPT, therefore it was decided to undertake co-located borehole/SCPT/SDMT and laboratory classification testing for use in conjunction with a site wide geologic model to develop soil specific correction factors for use in liquefaction assessment. Soil specific correction factors were investigated for the Ic sand like/clay like cut-off (B&I 2014) and the fines content (Cfc). The specific correction factors derived are presented along with examples from the project showing the consequence, some of which are significant, of adopting soil specific correlations. -

The issue was widely publicised nationally and internationally in 2002 when it came to the attention of the media. The small wetland and culturally significant site (~30 m by 20 m) was located between the existing road and the Waikato River, adjacent to the planned Expressway. Transit NZ had also identified the vicinity as having —higher environmental value than adjacent land“ (Transit New Zealand 2002b) and there was a spring feeding a small remnant of kahikatea trees ( Podocarpus dacrydiodes ) œ a fact never presented by the media. —While a lot of the area we are working on is in swamp, this section over about 30 metres appears to be a spring which may be significant for a large stand of kahikatea trees, which need to be protected“ (Transit New Zealand 2002b), —The discussions to date with Ngati Naho had focussed on how the Expressway could be constructed past this section in a manner which preserved the nature of the site“ (Transit New Zealand 2002b). -
Auckland's Strategic Public Transport Network – Lessons Learned from The
Auckland’s Strategic PT Network D Newcombe Page 0 AUCKLAND’S STRATEGIC PUBLIC TRANSPORT NETWORK – LESSONS LEARNED FROM THE BUSINESS CASE APPROACH Author/Presenter: Daniel Newcombe, MEngSt (Transportation), BPlan, MNZPI City Centre & RTN Initiatives team manager, Auckland Transport [email protected] 15th December 2016 ABSTRACT Auckland Transport (AT) is investigating how best to plan and deliver future improvements to the Strategic Public Transport Network (SPTN) to cater for Auckland’s rapidly growing population. The way this work is being undertaken is influenced by NZTA’s new Business Case Approach required for all future transport investments. This paper will outline AT’s work to date on the SPTN and how AT is using the recent Auckland Transport Alignment Project (ATAP) to strategically direct this work. The paper will also cover what AT has learned from applying the various processes contained within the Business Case Approach, how this has shaped the future programme and any wider lessons that could be applied to other transport projects. IPENZ Transportation Group Conference, Hamilton, 29 – 31 March 2017 Auckland’s Strategic PT Network D Newcombe Page 1 INTRODUCTION Auckland Transport (AT) is the road controlling authority responsible for the planning, operation and maintenance of most components of the Auckland transport system, including the public transport network (buses, trains, and ferries). The core of the public transport system is the Strategic Public Transport Network (SPTN) which consists of the heavy rail network and Northern Busway. To receive transport investment from the New Zealand Transport Agency (NZTA) for developing the SPTN and all other transport infrastructure or services, AT is required undertake a range of business cases defined under the Business Case Approach (BCA). -
