What you need to know

Investment in New Zealand’s land transport system is funded through the National Land Transport Fund under the framework set out in the Land Transport Management Act (LTMA) 2003. This framework ensures that funding contributes to an effective, efficient and safe land transport system.

In addition to funding provided through the LTMA process, the Government can also contribute additional Crown funding directly to transport projects or programmes to advance or achieve certain outcomes, priorities or objectives outside of the LTMA process.
