We handle calls every day on topics like driver licensing, road tolling, motor vehicle registration, the state highway network and other general queries.
Transport Operations Centres (TOCs)

They manage, monitor and inform customers and partners about incidents and hazards on state highways (in Auckland this also extends to the local road network). Additionally, they manage traffic signals on state highways and some local networks.
