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.

    Learnings from a Programme Business Case Transport Networks for Growth Programme 24 February 2017 Gavin Smith, BCom, MEngSt, CPEng, MIPENZ Principal Transport Planner – Strategic Growth Initiatives Auckland Transport [email protected] Craig Mitchell, BE(Hons), IntPE(NZ), CPEng, MIPENZ Principal Transport Planner – Highways and Network Operations NZ Transport Agency [email protected] Abstract Auckland is expected to grow by up to 1 million people by 20431. It is anticipated that 60-70% of this growth will occur within existing urban areas, with the remainder in future growth areas. Approximately 15,000 hectares of future growth is land that has been identified in the Proposed Auckland Unitary Plan (Operative in part) to accommodate this. The Business Case approach was used to investigate a future transport network in Auckland’s future growth areas, and deliver the planning and investment outcomes needed. By tailoring the Business Case approach the process ensured that a consistent regional approach was applied at a local level and provided enough detail and flexibility to respond to immediate and on-going development pressures within each growth area. 1 Statistics NZ high growth projections, 2013 Learnings from a Programme Business Case G.Smith, C.Mitchell Page 1 Background The Transport Networks for Growth project (previously known as Transport for Future Urban Growth) was completed in an eight month period in 2016 and is the largest and most complex Programme Business Case completed in New Zealand. The Programme Business Case identified a $7.6 billion regional programme (the Programme) covering four geographical areas (Warkworth, North, North West, South) comprising some 15,000 hectares of future growth areas land.

  • Discovering the Hindrance of Walking and Cycling in Auckland’S Urban Form
    DISCOVERING THE HINDRANCE OF WALKING AND CYCLING IN AUCKLAND’S URBAN FORM. MEYER NEESON A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Masters of Urban Design at the University of Auckland, 2020. Abstract Active transport is a fundamental element in a city’s movement network that promotes a sustainable and resilient urban future, yet can only be viable in an urban setting that supports small-scale infrastructure with appropriate street environments. The 1950’s planning regimes have been dominant within Auckland’s transport development with perpetuated traditional aims of increased efficiency and high level infrastructure which enables travel in the comfort of a private vehicle. Attitudes have formulated the urban fabric through funding and investment intervention which resulted in a strong motorway network and low density, sprawling residential suburbs. Psychological public response to this environment is reflected in the heavy reliance on the private vehicle and low rates of walking and cycling. Although Auckland’s transport framework identifies the need for walking and cycling to actively form a strand of Auckland’s transport network, institutional and intellectual embedded ideas of the 1950’s prevent implementation on the ground. The failure of Auckland’s urban form was highlighted in the period of the Covid-19; post lockdown the public reverted back to old transport habits when restrictions were lifted. This pandemic put our city in the spotlight to identify its shortfalls and the urgent need to support a resilient future. Therefore, this research aims to discover the inherent infrastructure and funding barriers that hinder the growth of walking and cycling as a transport method in Auckland.

Auckland Transport has previously reviewed the TIA submitted with this application as part of pre-application discussions with the applicant, and it appears that the TIA has not been updated since those discussions.
