Good afternoon Isaac

Apologies for the delay in getting the reports loaded, but as per our previous letter, the studies and reports on the Decarbonisation Strategy for the Golden Triangle have now been loaded up onto the KiwiRail Website.

They can be found at this link - https://www.kiwirail.co.nz/who-we-are/su...

Or if that link doesn't work through FYI.org, then please go to the Sustainability page, and follow the links under Find Out More.

Cheers
Dave

Subject: Official Information request - Block of line impact on freight share

CAUTION EXTERNAL EMAIL: Do not click links or open attachments unless you know the content is safe.

Kia ora,

I am writing to request information under the Official Information Act 1982. Specifically, I am seeking:

1. Information regarding the operational and commercial impacts of the block of line on Auckland's rail network. This should include analysis of how block of line affects freight capacity and scheduling, the impact on Kiwirail's ability to attract and retain freight customers, and any assessments of lost commercial opportunities due to network constraints.

2. Documentation related to Kiwirail's current and planned initiatives to increase rail freight mode share. This should include strategic plans and assessments for expanding freight services, and analysis of potential freight growth opportunities in the region.

3. Information about Kiwirail's decarbonisation projects. This should include feasibility studies and planning documents for electrification of the Golden Triangle (Auckland-Hamilton-Tauranga), progress reports and timelines for closing the electrification gap between Hamilton and Pukekohe.

Please include any relevant reports, business cases, correspondence, and meeting minutes from the last three years relating to these matters.

Ngā mihi,
Zak
