FEATURED QUESTION — TRANSPORT
Q.1.1
What are the priority transport projects for Auckland in the next 50 years?

A 50-year transport plan for Auckland is crucial because the city is one of New Zealand's fastest-growing urban centres. Decisions made now about rail, rapid transit, and active corridors will determine liveability and economic productivity for generations.
WHY THIS MATTERS
Auckland grows by ~50,000 residents per year
Current public transport modal share sits below 10%
Over $30 billion in transport decisions are being made this decade
