What: Auckland Conversation’s event on “Transport in Auckland – The 10-Year Budget Proposal”

When: Monday, 2 March 2015 5:00 p.m

Where: Lower NZI Conference Room, Aotea Centre, 50 Mayoral Drive

Auckland is the country’s fastest growing region with transport considered the single biggest issue. Major investment will be needed in the next decade to avoid worsening congestion and the impact this will have on our economy, environment and way of life.

We have a choice to make. Do we accept a basic transport network which costs less, or do we invest more to get the advanced transport programme set out in the 30-year vision for our region known as the Auckland Plan.

If we choose to fix Auckland’s transport issues and get our city moving we need to consider how we should pay for it. This could be through increased fuel taxes and higher rates, or through the introduction of a new motorway charge.
