About our programme

This programme aims to help increase the effectiveness of Auckland’s network by improving and providing effective travel choices and road safety. It is a joint programme between Waka Kotahi NZ Transport Agency and Auckland Transport.  

As Auckland continues to grow, so does our need to move more people and goods more efficiently and build resilience in both existing and new communities. Aucklanders have told us they want a convenient, well-connected, accessible and reliable transport system that moves them around if they choose to drive, walk, cycle, bus, train or ferry.  

To keep our city moving we are making smarter, more dynamic use of our roads, footpaths and cycleways. New transport infrastructure is important but it’s also expensive, so we’re adopting new technologies and systems to use our finite space and funding better.   

We look at making relatively inexpensive and quick changes to our roads and paths to improve efficiency, safety and agility, support economic growth outcomes and reduce reliance on only major infrastructure to improve our transport network. 

Small strategic changes, such as converting existing lanes to new bus or transit lanes, keeps people and goods moving and supports reliable public transport which contributes to a more connected healthier city. 

We will work with the community to deliver transport initiatives that benefit all road users. Whether taking kids to schools, getting to and from work, cycling in the park, going shopping, or heading to events, we're part of your life. 

We're working to shape our city and provide transport choices for a growing, vibrant Tāmaki Makaurau Auckland.
