The COVID-19 pandemic (COVID-19) has become a part of our day-to-day lives and will remain a source of uncertainty in the discharge of our duties and role as Auckland’s road controlling authority, and provider of public transport. Despite the challenge posed by COVID-19, Auckland Transport (AT) continued to function and support the Auckland community while keeping the health and safety of our frontline staff and customers as our utmost priority. AT’s actions and prompt messaging were recognised by the Association of Local Government Information Management (ALGIM), placing first in the exercise of leadership and innovation during COVID-19. COVID-19 has had flow-on effects, resulting in legislative change, as well as financial constraints. AT has been assisting Auckland Council (Council) in navigating the new processes introduced by the new Fast Track Consenting Act, while also continuing to focus on project delivery across the region. With a decreased and limited budget, and work further hampered by shifting COVID-19 Alert Levels in Auckland, AT learnt to operate in an uncertain climate.

  • Auckland Transport Alignment Project April 2018
    Auckland Transport Alignment Project April 2018 Foreword I welcome the advice provided by the Auckland Transport Alignment Project (ATAP). The ATAP package is a transformative transport programme. Investment in transport shapes our city’s development and is a key contributor to economic, social and environmental goals. The direction signalled in this update is shared by Government and Auckland Council and demonstrates our commitment to working together for a better Auckland. Auckland is facing unprecedented population growth, and over the next 30 years a million more people will call Auckland home. Growth brings opportunities but when combined with historic under- investment in infrastructure the strain on the Auckland transport system is unrelenting. Existing congestion on our roads costs New Zealand’s economy $1.3b annually. We need to do things differently to what has been done in the past. Auckland needs a transport system that provides genuine choice for people, enables access to opportunities, achieves safety, health and environmental outcomes and underpins economic development. Our aspiration must be to make sure Auckland is a world class city. Auckland’s success is important not just for Aucklanders, but for our country’s long-term growth and productivity. The Government and Auckland Council have agreed to a transformative and visionary plan. ATAP is a game-changer for Auckland commuters and the first-step in easing congestion and allowing Auckland to move freely. I believe this ATAP package marks a significant step in building a modern transport system in Auckland. ATAP accelerates delivery of Auckland’s rapid transit network, with the aim of unlocking urban development opportunities, encourages walking and cycling, and invests in public transport, commuter and freight rail and funds road improvements.

  • Ce Report for August Was Completed Within 4 Working Days, Which Will Enable Significantly More Time for Supporting the Business Managers in Analysis and Improvement
    Agenda Item 10 Business Report – September 2012 INTRODUCTION This Report provides the Board an overview, status and direction for each division of Auckland Transport (AT). 1 PEOPLE and SERVICES (Simon Harvey) Human Resources 1.1 Executive Summary The key metrics of sick leave and staff turnover remain low as has been reported since commencement of organisation. Labour market predictors do not foresee a drastic lift in employment opportunities and these trends should remain constant over the next six months. The first year of performance based salary reviews were completed in August and the transition to this approach has gone smoothly. The guidelines and expectations were followed and adhered to. This differs from last year‟s generic remuneration approach for all staff. The new online performance management system is on-track to go live in early September and will be used across the organisation from 2012/2013. Training and information will be available to help managers and employees get the most out of the system. The launch of the new vision and values for Auckland Transport in August was well received by staff. The new values reflect the behaviours that are important to the people of Auckland Transport and feedback to date has been positive. Work continues to incorporate the new values framework into the business and reinforce the desired behaviours. Trained first aiders situated in our offices can now be contacted faster. In the event of a medical situation in the office, staff can dial one number to get hold of an AT first aider. The system accesses a data base and rings the registered first aiders, ensuring someone is on hand to help.
