Mayor of Waitaki
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.

Introduce a public transport service for Oamaru and to and from Weston and Kakanui. We've applied for funding and if successful, it'll happen!
Continue creating tracks for walkers and cyclists in some of our more rural areas, as well as making it safer to walk and bike in urban areas.
Continue to lobby NZ Transport Agency for more funding to fix our roads. Rural economies rely on good roads and the agency needs to play its part.
Implement polices that reduce ribbon development to reduce reliance of automotive transportation.
Uphold the specifications for roading maintenance to reduce repeat infrastructure failures.
Encourage telecommuting to reduce vehicle costs and travel time.
