Subject: Official Information request - Request for contract to provide
Wellington Metro Railway Business Cases

 

Dear KiwiRail,

 

Some months ago, KiwiRail responded to a request to provide the two Crown
business cases prepared jointly with the Greater Wellington Regional
Council for submission to Ministry of Transport. The first covers KiwiRail
network track infrastructure deferred renewals, which predominantly affect
the Wairarapa Line. The second business case is to remove network
constraints to enable increased capacity (more frequent and longer trains)
to operate principally on the Hutt and Kapiti lines. "

I understand these two business cases were prepared with the assistance of
Aurecon and possibly other transport consultants.

 

1) Can I please have a copy of the contract or contracts with the
transport consultants used to provide the business case "Wellington Metro
Railway Network Track Infrastructure Catch-Up Renewals" ?

 

2) Can I please have a copy of the contract or contracts with the
transport consultants used to provide the business case "Wellington Metro
Railway - Unlocking Network Capacity and improving Resilience" ?

 

If this information is held in electronic form, it is preferred that it is
provided in its complete and original electronic format.

 

Finally, can KiwiRail please acknowledge its receipt of this information
request ?

 

Yours faithfully,

 

Tony Randle
