    Inquiry RO-2012-105: Unsafe recovery from wrong-route at Wiri Junction, 31 August 2012 The Transport Accident Investigation Commission is an independent Crown entity established to determine the circumstances and causes of accidents and incidents with a view to avoiding similar occurrences in the future. Accordingly it is inappropriate that reports should be used to assign fault or blame or determine liability, since neither the investigation nor the reporting process has been undertaken for that purpose. The Commission may make recommendations to improve transport safety. The cost of implementing any recommendation must always be balanced against its benefits. Such analysis is a matter for the regulator and the industry. These reports may be reprinted in whole or in part without charge, providing acknowledgement is made to the Transport Accident Investigation Commission. Final Report Rail inquiry RO-2012-105 Unsafe recovery from wrong-route at Wiri Junction, 31 August 2012 Approved for publication: April 2016 Transport Accident Investigation Commission About the Transport Accident Investigation Commission The Transport Accident Investigation Commission (Commission) is a standing commission of inquiry and an independent Crown entity responsible for inquiring into maritime, aviation and rail accidents and incidents for New Zealand, and co-ordinating and co-operating with other accident investigation organisations overseas. The principal purpose of its inquiries is to determine the circumstances and causes of occurrences with a view to avoiding similar occurrences in the future. Its purpose is not to ascribe blame to any person or agency or to pursue (or to assist an agency to pursue) criminal, civil or regulatory action against a person or agency.

  • 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.

Conclusion 33 2 Waikato – Auckland Passenger Rail Service: Preliminary Business Case Executive Summary Environment Waikato (“EW”) has for some time been investigating the possibility of establishing a commuter train between Hamilton and Auckland. The purpose of this report is to advance previous work to see if there is a preliminary business case for such a service. The basic proposal is to operate a train from Hamilton around 6­6:30 am, arriving in Auckland 2 hours later, and returning from Auckland about 5:30 pm. The exact times have not yet been determined, and will need to be negotiated with ARTA, Ontrack, and Kiwirail. The train would only make limited stops to ensure a time competitive with car travel.. The proposal is to “start small”, and require no capital expenditure on stations; hence it will use the current Hamilton (Frankton) station, and only stop at Huntly in the Waikato.
