Auckland Transport (AT) is currently taking account of the 5817 public submissions received on the draft Regional Land Transport Plan for 2021 – 2031.
The draft RLTP is the 10-year investment plan for Auckland’s transport network. It details the areas that Auckland Transport, Waka Kotahi NZ Transport Agency and KiwiRail will focus on to respond to our region’s transport challenges.
While individual feedback is currently being analysed, some key themes are:
The Johnsonville line a “rapid transit” service? It’s about as rapid as LGWM.

To my mind the Johnsonville line should be converted to an o-Bahn busway . That way buses could come from further afield, then take the busway into the city and carry on out the other side with passengers never having to get off and transfer for longer journeys.
Blimey to all this! Well done, Felicity Wong.

In the view of the WCC, “Rapid” is met by the cable car at 20km/h … so the Johnsonville line taking 25min to do 10.4km still scrapes in. However after much to-ing and fro-ing, they concluded that the CC failed the “high capacity” leg as it could only move 600 ppl per hour in each direction.

The first serious challenge has been lodged against Auckland’s 10-year transport plan, with Lawyers for Climate Action calling it ‘unlawful’ and vulnerable if a judicial review was sought. The lawyers’ submission to the proposed joint council-government Regional Land Transport Plan (RLTP) said it falls short of statutory obligations and commitments to halve carbon emissions by 2030. “Instead, it provides for transport emissions to increase 6 per cent by 2031, or at best reduce by 12 per cent if the Government puts in place certain policies,” said the groups president Jenny Cooper QC.
