Transport Minister Michael Wood and Auckland Mayor Phil Goff said the ATAP largely reflected and built upon the $28 billion 2018 package, with $600 million more than previous package for walking and cycling initiatives, plus $500 million more for buses and ferries. The project is focused on encouraging a shift from private cars to public transport, walking and cycling, and is predicted to increase the number of public transport trips by 91 per cent.

Steven Joyce: Why this Govt won't fix the housing shortage 22 Jan, 2021 04:00 PM 6 minutes to read Jacinda Ardern visits a Kāinga Ora project - but can the old Housing NZ deliver the homes NZ needs? Photo / Greg Bowker NZ Herald OPINION: There are two big housing challenges in New Zealand currently, and this week's start to the political year suggests the Government doesn't have serious new answers for either of them. The most visible problem is rapidly inflating house prices, and the noises ministers made on Thursday about "solving" that one fall squarely into the public handwringing and "must be seen to be doing something while not doing very much" categories.
