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.

Grow an accessible and functional transport system.
Walking and cycling: we need to still invest in cycleways and walking tracks in the east, however, do not overspend on these items.
Traffic congestion: we must look into future ways to avoid traffic congestion and these idea could be radical ones, like moving and closing roads.
Public transport: work with the private sector to remove the big buses and utilise smaller eco-friendly vehicles to go in and out of suburbs.
