Albert-Eden Local Board
Transport
Helping communities get from A to B is a key responsibility of local government, from making sure the buses run on time to providing car parking and walking and cycling paths. Whether public transport is the responsibility of the regional or local council depends on where you are in the country. Local councils also own 87% of New Zealand’s roads.

Free up the city by stopping all unnecessary road works. Allow business to recover.
Ensure all public transport is easy to access and affordable.
Create better thought out bike routes that are maintained and cleaned regularly to promote use.
