    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 Wooden infrastructure has been replaced by more resilient materials and today we look to advanced technological solutions to ensure the safety of the network and our people.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.
