Dear Tony
Thank you for your email of 17 December 2019 requesting the following information under the Official
Information Act 1982 (the Act):
the key supporting information used in the Bus Priority Action Plan Draft for each of "the eight bus
priority corridors"
The
Draft Indicative Business Case: Wellington Bus Priority Programme was developed jointly by a
team from Wellington City Council (WCC) and Greater Wellington Regional Council (GWRC), with
involvement from Waka Kotahi, the NZ Transport Agency. As it is aligned with the objectives of the Let’s
Get Wellington Moving (LGWM) programme, it will be addressed as a key workstream in the LGWM
programme going forward. Therefore, LGWM is responding to your OIA request, with the support of
WCC, GWRC and the Transport Agency.
Please find attached a spreadsheet which contains some of the information you have requested.
