Modelling on the Manukau South Link

Ben Ross made this Official Information request to Auckland Transport

The request was refused by Auckland Transport.

From: Ben Ross

Dear Auckland Transport,

I am enquiring about The Manukau Rail South Link (the rail link that would allow Pukekohe/Papakura to Manukau services directly without the need for a transfer as current at Puhinui Station)with modelling done.

I do acknowledge that Auckland Transport are working through the processes with Auckland Council over the Manukau South Link and whether it should be finally built or not. That said I am not seeking Auckland Transport's position on the Manukau South Link (unless you wish to give it) but rather seeking the modelling and (if done) the business case on the Link.

Specifically if the Manukau South Link is or were to be built and operating:

How many trains per hour would be running using the South Link in the: peak, off peak week days, and weekends?

How many passengers is AT predicting (via the modelling) to use the trains that would go to Manukau via the South Link in the: peak, non peak and weekends

Would AT use the new EMU fleet, the existing diesel fleet (especially if Pukekohe has not been electrified yet) or a mix of both

What is the cost of build the Manukau South Link (both just the link (track and wires) itself and any "compensation" to Port of Auckland for the loss of their siding (at the north end) at their Wiri Inland Port Facility)
Does Auckland Transport have a business case drawn up for the Manukau South Link and/or has it been presented to Auckland Council as of yet? If the business case is drawn up is able to be released into the public domain?

If all T's are crossed and all I's are dotted when would AT like to have the South Link built and operating ideally.

Does Auckland Transport have the funding currently available to build the Link or does AT need to go to Council for extra funding.

I thank you in advance

Yours faithfully,

Ben Ross

The LGOIMA was refused owing to documents pertaining to the request do not exist. However, emails with Executive Management say otherwise and some pre Super City Context was given.

More emails will be sent to get this cleared up
