  • safer drivers
  • safer vehicles, and
  • activities that will be required in this activity class as part of the government’s road safety objectives that are under development.

We (NZ Transport Agency Waka Kotahi (NZTA) as investor) expect that investments from the safety activity class will contribute to the outcomes sought by the government and the Minister of Transport’s expectations set out in the GPS 2024.
