ITS New Zealand has submitted a response to the draft Government Policy Statement on Land Transport 2024 following a consultation survey and feedback from our members and sector.
About the GPS
The GPS sets out the Government’s land transport strategy including:
- what it expects to be achieved from its investment in land transport through the National Land Transport Fund (NLTF)
- what it expects to be achieved from its direct investment in land transport
- how much funding will be provided and how the funding will be raised
- how it will achieve its outcomes and priorities through investment in certain areas, known as “activity classes” (eg. the maintenance of state highways or road policing)
- a statement of the Minister’s expectations of how the New Zealand Transport Agency gives effect to this GPS
This draft GPS replaces the GPS that the former Government consulted on in August 2023.
