Statement of the Public Policy Objective(s)
The public policy objectives are:
- To reduce the costs and inefficiencies arising from the current statutory
framework, including avoidable damage to roads and utility networks, delays
and disputes, inconsistencies between statutes, and poor coordination.
- To provide for better management of the multi-use of road corridors
in the public interest, including road safety, and balancing the provision
of utility services with efficient transport and universal access to roads.
- To provide the potential for increased utility access to rail and motorway
corridors while recognising the transport and safety responsibilities of
Transit NZ, and the transport, safety and business interests of ONTRACK.
