Based on GPS 2018, the Transport Agency will ensure that its investment decisions in the NLTP will support the Government’s priorities for a land transport system that:

  • is a safe system, free from death and serious injury
  • improves access to economic and social opportunities, improved resilience, and transport choices for urban and regional New Zealand
  • enables better environmental outcomes through reducing adverse effects of transport on the climate, the local environment and public health
  • delivers the best possible value for money through investing in the right infrastructure and services to the right level at the best cost.
