NZ Transport Agency Waka Kotahi standards and guidelines register for land transport

Published: | Category: Administration , Manuals | Audiences: General, Local & regional government

This version of the National register of standards and guidelines for land transport (‘the register’) replaces all previous versions of the register.

Changes introduced in this version:

  • Disciplines has been updated and sub-disciplines are being added over time.
  • Provisional divisions and sub-divisions and categories/subcategories have been added and will be refined over time.
  • Provisional status has been added for NZTA and approved organisation users.

Objectives

The National register provides in a single location, a definitive list of all approved and planned NZ Transport Agency Waka Kotahi Transport Services technical documentation for land transport network related activities. The register is a simple, easy to access and manipulate, repository of land transport network technical documentation for approved organisations, staff, consultants, contractors and other eligible users.

Purpose

The National register lists the approved documents and planned document developments applicable to land transport network related activities and is intended to assist users to identify key resources related to their work. All documents identify an owner who can provide additional support and information as required.

Status

The National register is routinely updated both on-line and on the NZ Transport Agency Waka Kotahi website as further technical documentation is approved.
