We are seeking feedback on a proposed update of national policies, requirements and guidelines for procurement in public transport.

Type: NZTA project
Closing date: 14 March 2025
NZTA wants to improve traffic flow on SH1 Evans Street by expanding it to two lanes in each direction. While we are replacing the road surface between Te Weka Street and Wai-Iti Road, we are proposing to remove parking on the road shoulder, by extending no-stopping restrictions. This will allow room for these additional lanes in this area.
We welcome your feedback on these proposed changes.
