Thank you for your Official Information Act request dated 19 August 2025,
in which you seek:
All information and communications since 1 Jan 2022 within NZTA and
between NZTA and external parties regarding works or upgrades on the SH8 /
Lindis bridge crossing.
To help us process your request more efficiently, we’d appreciate your
assistance in refining its scope. As currently worded, the request is
quite broad and may capture a large volume of material, including routine
correspondence related to general management and maintenance of the
bridge.
To narrow the search and ensure we provide you with the most relevant
information, could you please clarify whether your interest relates to a
specific issue or development? For example, are you seeking information
connected to the proposed gold mining development near Ardgour Road, or
any other project or concern?
Alternatively, if you have specific keywords or topics, you’d like us to
focus on, please let us know so we can tailor our search accordingly.
We would appreciate it if you could clarify exactly what information you
are seeking so we can proceed accordingly.
