1. Introduction
Auckland Transport (AT) proposes a variation to the Auckland Regional Public Transport
Plan (RPTP). The RPTP is a statutory document that describes the services that are
integral to the Aucklands public transport network, and the policies and procedures that
apply to those services. The proposed variation is intended to amend the RPTP to provide
for the following public transport initiatives:
Proposals for a new light rail transit (LRT) network on some major arterial routes
Service and infrastructure changes arising from the Ferry Development Plan
which was approved by the AT Board in December 2014
Revised service descriptions arising from community consultation on the new bus
network
The scope of the proposed RPTP variation is limited to the matters listed above, together
with some amendments that are needed to address material in the existing RPTP that is now
out of date. Further amendments are likely as part of a more comprehensive review of the
RPTP planned for next year.
This document sets out the proposed amendments to the RPTP for each of the four matters
outlined above. It also identifies the amendments to the RPTP that are proposed to update
and correct information in the existing RPTP that is now out of date.
The proposed RPTP variation will be released for public consultation on 11 May 2015.
Submissions are invited until the closing date of 5 June 2015. Following analysis of
feedback from the consultation process, AT intends to finalise the RPTP variation in July
2015.
Written submissions on the RPTP variation can be made online at https://at.govt.nz/rptp; by

2.2. Background
The move to simplified zone fare system was foreshadowed in the fares and ticketing
policies in section 6.5 of the existing RPTP. This required AT to investigate a zone-based
fare system, and to determine the appropriate way to implement it. That policy was
developed in response to feedback on the Draft RPTP in 2012, which supported a zonebased structure, but raised concerns about the equity of the neighbourhood zones that were
proposed at the time.
Since that time, AT has evaluated a range of different fare options, and settled on a new,
simpler zone-based fare system. Further detail on the options considered, and the rationale
behind the proposed zonal system is available on the AT website. Having completed these
investigations, AT now proposes to update the RPTP to reflect its preferred approach.
A map of the proposed fare zones is included in Attachment A. The zone boundaries
outside the city zone have been drawn at approximately 10 km intervals from the city centre,
taking account of major travel destinations. The new system will calculate fares according to
the number of zones travelled through.
A key feature of the new fare system is the introduction of journey-based fares. This means
that instead of being charged a separate fare for each ride, the fare will be calculated for the
total journey from A to B, regardless of whether the passenger needs to transfer between
different bus or metro rail services, or, potentially, light rail (see next section).
The new journey-based fares will initially only apply for customers using AT HOP cards on
buses and trains. Separate point-to-point fares will remain for ferries. AT will continue to
work with ferry operators with a view to extending the new system to ferry travel as soon as
possible.
Along with the new fare zones, AT is proposing a much simpler set of fare products. Cash
tickets will still be available for single trips, but they will not allow for journey-based fares. AT
HOP card users will have the choice of using the stored value on their card to pay for each
journey, or a simple monthly pass that will allow unlimited bus and train travel across all
zones. A day pass is also proposed, allowing unlimited all-zone travel on buses and trains,
4
plus inner-harbour ferries. In the longer term, AT intends to introduce daily and weekly fare
caps for AT HOP customers, which would replace the daily and monthly passes.
Amendments to the introductory text to explain the background to the policy and how
the new fare system will work
Changes to the policies and actions to reflect the shift from investigation to
implementation of simplified zone fares
Amendments to the policy and actions on fare products to reflect the proposed
simpler product range, as outlined above.
3. Light rail
3.1. Summary of proposal
Investigations into alternative public transport options for those parts of the Auckland
isthmus that cannot be served by the metro rail network have concluded that light rail is the
best option to provide for increased capacity, reliability and speed. As a result, AT has
undertaken further detailed investigations on the possible introduction of light rail on some
critical routes, which identified provisional preferred routes and priorities. Further technical
investigations and analyses of delivery options and timing are being carried out.
Subject to the outcome of these investigations, and approval to proceed including funding,
AT proposes a staged implementation of light rail. The initial stages, which may be
implemented during the 10 year planning period of the RPTP would likely include Queen
Street and Dominion Road potentially including a link to Wynyard Quarter. A route
extension to the Airport is also possible, subject to investigation of light rail and metro rail
options. Other corridors (Sandringham Road, Manukau Road and Mt Eden Road) could be
implemented at a later stage, subject to feasibility and funding. If implemented, light rail
would replace the existing bus services on these routes.
Should a decision be made to proceed with the light rail proposal, changes to the RPTP will
be needed, including changes to the network, unit and service descriptions to provide for the
new light rail services, and to amend some existing bus units. Amendments to policies on
network structure, infrastructure, procurement, and vehicle standards will also be required,
as well as changes to the implementation plan.
Whilst light rail is still being assessed and no final decisions have been taken, AT believes
that it is good practice to signal the possibility and allow engagement on it, before it commits
to the proposal.
3.2. Background
The 2012 City Centre Future Access Study (CCFAS) concluded that a combination of the
City Rail Link (CRL) and surface bus improvements would be needed to provide for future
access to the city centre. The CCFAS also highlighted the potential for future capacity
issues in the city centre, particularly from the central and southern parts of the isthmus not
served by the metro rail network.
While the metro rail network with the CRL in place provides substantial improvements in
accessibility to the city centre from rail-served areas, it still does not address the issue of
over-capacity bus corridors in and approaching the city centre for highly-patronised central
isthmus services. There are already very high numbers of buses on these corridors during
peak periods, with only limited opportunities to increase capacity in the short-term, for
example by using double-decker buses.
Future demand growth from these areas will result in bus routes on major arterials such as
Symonds Street and Dominion Road being significantly over-capacity in the future. The
concentration of buses in the city centre is also expected to result in area-specific impacts on
urban amenity in sensitive city centre locations.
6
To address these issues, AT has undertaken further studies of alternative public transport
options for those parts of the Auckland isthmus that cannot be served by the metro rail
network. This work has concluded that light rail is the best option to provide for increased
capacity in a way that supports the citys development, protects city centre amenity, and
enables the reallocation of buses to improve bus service in growth areas not served by light
rail.
Light rail is a type of passenger transit system based around modern train-style vehicles that
run on rail tracks generally within the roadway. It is a similar concept to the historic tram
system of Auckland, but with modern technology and vehicles that are much faster, bigger
and more efficient.
Light rail can generally provide faster and more reliable trips with more passenger capacity
than buses in the same corridor, especially where dedicated light rail lanes are provided.
However, as the infrastructure for light rail can be built within the street corridor it is usually
much cheaper to develop than regular metro rail, which requires a totally separate railway
line.
Because they run on fixed tracks and have relatively compact platform style stops, light rail
vehicles can move large numbers of people in less space than would be required by a
busway system of the same capacity. This is an important consideration for Aucklands city
centre and dense historic suburbs, where widening roads for more bus or traffic capacity is
generally impossible. Light rail vehicles also do not need to be turned around at the terminal
stop, which requires much less land in the city centre than an equivalent bus station.
Light rail vehicles can hold three to six times the number of passengers in one vehicle run by
one driver. This makes them more efficient with more cost effective operation on very busy
routes, and increases the ability to provide priority at intersections without excessive delays
to other traffic. However building the vehicles and tracks does require a significant
investment, so light rail is usually not a cost effective solution on less busy corridors.
AT is investigating the introduction of light rail in the following major public transport
corridors:
These corridors not only target the busiest suburban bus lines directly, they also provide
improved connectivity in and around the city centre, including key areas such as the Queen
Street valley, the waterfront, the universities and the hospital. These lines would be closely
integrated with the rest of the bus, train and ferry system as a single connected network.
Figure 1 shows how the rapid transit network could look in the future if light rail were
developed on all of the corridors under investigation. .
Subject to the outcome of the investigations, approval to proceed and funding, AT proposes
a staged implementation of light rail on these corridors. The initial stages, which are being
considered for construction during the 10 year planning period of the RPTP, would be likely
to include Queen Street and Dominion Road (and, potentially, a link to Wynyard Quarter).
The other routes could be implemented at a later stage, subject to funding and approvals.
Figure 1: Potential long term light rail corridors and rapid transit network
If implemented, light rail would replace the existing bus services in these corridors. This
would enable the reallocation of substantial numbers of buses to improve bus service in
areas not served by light rail, including Special Housing Areas and other rapidly expanding
growth areas. The introduction of light rail would also necessitate changes to the bus
network to ensure that adequate feeder services to light rail are maintained.
Further details on the light rail proposal can be found at:
https://at.govt.nz/projects-roadworks/light-rail-network/
The changes to public transport units and other RPTP amendments would go ahead once
the necessary details have been confirmed.
4.2. Background
The 2013 RPTP identified the need for a review of the role that ferries should play in the
Auckland public transport network, and the preparation of a Ferry Plan to set out the actions
needed to better integrate ferries into the network. The RPTP also called for these actions
to be incorporated into the RPTP by variation.
Following a collaborative process with ferry operators and other stakeholders, this work has
now been completed, and the resulting Ferry Development Plan was approved by the AT
Board in December 2014.
The Ferry Development Plan focuses on improving existing services and infrastructure and
on greater integration of the current ferry network with local bus routes and supporting
feeder services. It calls for service level improvements on existing ferry services to reach
the minimum levels specified in the RPTP, with further increases to be implemented in
response to demand. It also identifies a number of ferry infrastructure improvements and
renewals that are needed to address capacity and customer amenity and safety issues at
key ferry wharves.
The Plan also evaluated proposals for extensions to the existing ferry network, including new
services to Browns Bay, Takapuna and Te Atatu. It concluded that due to the high
infrastructure costs involved with new services, the priority for additional resources should be
on improving the frequency and capacity of existing ferry routes, rather than network
expansion.
Chapter 5 Key directions: replace the penultimate paragraph on page 42 with the
following:
Given the Auckland maritime environment, the potential for ferries to play a greater
role in the public transport system is recognised. This needs to acknowledge the
specific characteristics of Aucklands ferry market: a strong tourism component, and
the fact that some ferry services, as noted above, are deemed to be exempt services
under the LTMA). The Ferry Development Plan focuses on improving existing
10
services and infrastructure and on greater integration of the current ferry network with
local bus routes and supporting feeder services.
11
5.2. Background
The 2013 RPTP set out the policy framework for significant changes to the Auckland public
transport network, with the staged introduction of a new integrated network structure which
will provide a city-wide connected network of frequent and reliable services. The RPTP
provided for the detailed implementation of the new network following an assessment of the
specific route structures in each area, with input from local communities.
This community consultation process has now been completed in South Auckland (2013),
Green Bay Titirangi (2013), Hibiscus Coast (2014), Pukekohe and Waiuku (2014) and
West Auckland (2014). The Green Bay Titirangi New Network was implemented in August
2014, and further rollouts of the New Network are planned for Hibiscus Coast before the end
of 2015, South Auckland by mid-2016, and the rest of the region in stages by the end of
2017.

Include reference to light rail in the introductory text to Chapter 5, before Table 5-1:
Auckland Transport is also investigating the introduction of light rail on selected
arterial routes to provide additional public transport capacity and improved
performance without compromising city centre street capacity and amenity. Subject
to the outcome of these investigations, approval to proceed and funding, AT
proposes a staged implementation of light rail, with completion of the initial stages
(Queen Street and Dominion Road, with a possible link to Wynyard Quarter) within
the 10-year planning horizon of this Plan. A possible extension of this route to the
airport is also under investigation, along with metro rail options.

units
Work with bus operators to develop a strategy for the transition
from bus services to light rail services on affected bus routes and
bus units
6.9 Funding and prioritisation
Light rail Unit services using Queen Street (include route, frequency, hours of
operation, indicative start date (subject to approvals and funding)
In addition to the new light rail unit, changes are proposed to the bus units in the existing
RPTP that would be affected by the new light rail service. Amendments to the following bus
units are proposed:
Bus Unit 1 - City Link: this unit would be either amended or discontinued once the
Queen Street light rail service is operational
Bus Unit 8 - Dominion Road: some of the bus services in these units would be
discontinued once light rail service is operational. Remaining bus services at the
outer ends of the existing routes would be continued as feeders to the light rail
service, at higher frequencies than the existing services.
It is also proposed to add an annotation to identify bus units on other corridors which are
likely to be affected by planned future extensions to the light rail network, beyond the 10year planning period covered by this RPTP. This includes Unit 7 - Sandringham Road, Unit 9
Mt Eden Road, and Unit 10 Manukau Road.
These proposed changes to service descriptions are included in the proposed replacement
to Appendix 1 of the RPTP, which is attached as Attachment C. Further consultation on
these routes is planned as part of the central area New Network consultation process later in
2015.
Implementation plan
The introduction of light rail would involve the construction of fixed infrastructure, including
tracks, power supply systems, passenger platforms, and vehicle stabling facilities. Provision
for priority for light rail vehicles along the routes would also be required, to ensure reliable
travel times.
21
These infrastructure investments will need to be reflected in Chapter 8 of the RPTP, which
sets out the implementation plan and includes public transport infrastructure requirements
and an indicative timetable for their development. The amendments will include provision for
light rail and related infrastructure on the Queen Street and Dominion Road routes.
Other consequential amendments
The following schedule sets out the additional amendments that will also be required to
incorporate the light rail proposals into the RPTP:
