The benefits from sealing roads on the level of tourism activity and on gross tourism expenditure in New Zealand using, as a case study, the effects of sealing the Milford Sound road are reported.

This research, which was conducted from July 2008 to January 2010, investigated what type of cycling infrastructure would encourage 'new cyclists' (ie people who either do not currently cycle at all, or people who do not currently cycle for…

Walking is an essential mode of transport.

The purpose of this research was to consider a cost–benefit analysis framework for public policy development that takes account of the potentially distinctive costs and benefits of intelligent transport systems (ITS) projects.

The study looked at the trade-off between price and quality for bus and train users in Auckland, Christchurch and Wellington.

This research evaluates existing policy and planning practices, both in New Zealand and overseas, and identifies a framework for appraising and evaluating the benefits and costs of bus-based infrastructure (bus stops and shelters, bus interchanges an…

With increasing demand for travel and limited opportunities for increasing capacity within urban areas there is increasing pressure to make more effective use of the capacity available.

The National Traffic Database (NTDB) is a system for storing traffic data on each of approximately 120,000 sections of New Zealand public road network (state highways and local roads).

The integration of cycling and public transport (cycle-PT) can provide additional transport modal choice and flexibility in the use of existing public transport and also increase cycling trips and transit patronage.

This report presents the findings of a research project to investigate the feasibility of developing a national trip-end model (NTEM) for New Zealand.
