COVID-19 'Be Kind' and 'Unite Against COVID-19' LED Trailer Road Signs

A Croft made this Official Information request to Auckland Transport

This request has an unknown status. We're waiting for A Croft to read a recent response and update the status.

From: A Croft

Dear Auckland Transport,

I'm writing to you regarding the LED road sign trailers used during 2020, mainly during Auckland's two lockdowns, and whilst under Alert Levels 2 to 4. The messages displayed included "Be Kind" and "Unite Against COVID-19".

I'm seeking information to answer the following questions:

- Who was responsible for the trailers? i.e. AT or NZTA
- Parked road signage requires AT permission to be displayed. What were the steps taken by the applicant for display of the signs?
- What were the conditions for granting use of the trailer signage? Were there any breaches to these conditions?
- Were the terms for using the trailers outside of those typically granted? Did they have special permissions?
- These trailers were parked all around Auckland. Please supply all the locations of where these trailers were parked.

Yours faithfully,

A Croft

Kia ora A Croft,
 
My name is Cameron and I’m a LGOIMA Business Partner at Auckland
Transport. I’m responsible for looking into the official information
request you made on 18/01/2021.
Apologies for the delay in getting back to you, the initially enquiry took
longer then anticipated.
 
As your request is for information that is not available straight away, we
need to treat it as an official information request. This means that we

Update
I have spoken with multiple business units and no one is aware of the LED

questions.

I will transfer your request to them to see if they can help.
 

Should you believe that we have not dealt with your request appropriately,
you are able to make a complaint to the Office of the Ombudsman in
