Rangitīkei District Council
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.

Ensure an approach to repairing and maintaining of footpaths occurs to protect all our people and create safe paths for outdoor activity.
