Request for Wellington Rail RS1 Package Business Cases and funding
Tony Randle made this Official Information request to New Zealand Transport Agency
New Zealand Transport Agency did not have the information requested.
From: Tony Randle
Dear New Zealand Transport Agency,
The Greater Wellington Regional Council "Regional Public transport Plan 2014" (URL: http://www.gw.govt.nz/rptp/) outlines a number of rail transport projects as follows:
"Infrastructure
In order to deliver RS1, the major infrastructure projects are:
* Double tracking Trentham to Upper Hutt
* Installing a turnback/passing loop at Porirua Station
* Installing a turnback facility at Plimmerton
* Signalling and track upgrades through the Tawa basin
* Making safety improvements at level crossings
* Upgrading Upper Hutt Station in 2014 and 2015
* Providing ‘park and ride’ facility upgrades on the Kapiti and Hutt Valley Lines.
These projects have an estimated cost of $44 million, and the majority would be required between the 2018 and 2019 financial years to enable the new service patterns to begin in the 2020 financial year."
I am interested in the justification and funding for the "Rail RS1 package"
1) Can I please have a copy of any and all funding requests from GWRC or KiwiRail associated with the Rail RS1 package as outlined above ?
2) Can I please have a copy of any and all business cases (including any reports justifying investment in rail projects) associated with the Rail RS1 package as outlined above ?
3) Can I please have a copy of any and all NZTA reports associated with the costs, benefits and/or funding of Rail RS1 package as outlined above ?
4) Can I please have a copy of any and all NZTA Board presentations, reports, and/or minutes associated with the costs, benefits and/or funding of Rail RS1 package as outlined above ?
If the above information is held in electronic form, I would prefer it was provided in its complete and original electronic format.
Finally, can you please acknowledge NZTA's receipt of this information request ?
Yours faithfully,
Tony Randle
