Public transport usage by tertiary students

Daniel Farrell made this Official Information request to Waikato Regional Council

The request was successful.

From: Daniel Farrell

Dear Waikato Regional Council,

I am after information in regard to the usage of public transport by tertiary students. As such, I have two requests under the Local Government Official Information and Meetings Act 1987.

1. What data or reports, if any, does the Waikato Regional Council hold in regard to the current usage of public transport by tertiary students?

2. What projections, if any, does the Waikato Regional Council have in regard to future usage of public transport by tertiary students, based on both the current fare structure and if there was a tertiary concession in place.

Thank you in advance for your assistance.

Yours faithfully,

Daniel Farrell

What projections, if any, does the Waikato Regional Council hold in regard

We currently don’t have any projections of future usage of public

We are currently undertaking a review of our fare structure and concession

This analysis will occur this year and we will be happy to share the
