Cost Benefit calculations for the Auckland Advanced Bus Solution Report

Tony Randle made this Official Information request to New Zealand Transport Agency

The request was refused by New Zealand Transport Agency.

From: Tony Randle

Dear New Zealand Transport Agency,

In January 2017, the NZTA published the "Advanced Bus Solution" report (http://www.nzta.govt.nz/resources/advanc...). This report examines rapid transit options between the Auckland CBD and the Airport.

Part of the report was a Cost Benefit Analysis of proposed AART and AART+ options and showed "the CBA favours AART+ over AART". I am interested in understanding the details of how the NZTA estimated the CBA for these options.

1) Can I please have a copy of the detailed cost figures used to support the Advanced Bus Solution report ?

2) Can I please have a copy of the detailed benefit figures used to support the Advanced Bus Solution report ?

3) Can I please have a copy of the detailed patronage figures used to support the Advanced Bus Solution report ?

4) Can I please have a copy of the detailed Cost Benefit Analysis calculations (including the spreadsheet formula) used to support the Advanced Bus Solution report ?

I would prefer the information was provided in its complete and original format. I would also prefer that all correspondence on this OIA request be via the FYI web site.

Finally, can the NZTA please acknowledge this OIA request ?

Yours faithfully,

Tony Randle
