Kia ora,

On behalf of Hon Michael Wood, thank you for your email.

While the Minister considers all correspondence to be important and all
messages are carefully read and considered, it is not possible to provide
a personal response to every email received.

Where the Minister has portfolio responsibility for the issues that you
have raised, your correspondence will be considered and responded to where
appropriate.  If your email falls outside of these responsibilities, it
may transferred to another office for consideration.

Thank you for taking the time to write.

(Please note that this acknowledgement is an automatically generated

Regards

Office of Hon Michael Wood

Dear Phillip,

I am writing to acknowledge receipt of your Official Information Act request dated the 4th June 2021. You have requested the following information:

"Please advise what is the time frame for the recently announced Walking and Cycling Bridge across Auckland Harbour to achieve carbon neutrality. That is, given the carbon impact of the materials for and construction of the bridge vs the estimated reduced carbon emissions from users of the bridge.

Please also include the detail of the estimated number of vehicle crossings that will be eliminated by the bridge in the first year after its completion. This should include the estimated proportion of bridge cyclists and walkers that have migrated from public transport to cycling/walking and from passenger vehicles to cycling/walking."

We received your request on 08/06/2021. We will endeavour to respond to your request as soon as possible and in any event no later than 06/07/2021, being 20 working days after the day your request was received. If we are unable to respond to your request by then, we will notify you of an extension of that timeframe.

Kind regards,

Office of Hon Michael Wood
