Dear Adam
Request made under the Official Information Act 1982
Thank you for your email
of 20 April 2023 requesting the fol owing information under the Official
Information Act 1982 (the Act):
•
How many cameras does NZTA currently use to monitor roads and public spaces?
•
Of these cameras, how many are made by Hikvision?
•
If this information is available, I would also appreciate any further details regarding the use
and maintenance of these cameras and if they wil be phased out.
Waka Kotahi NZ Transport Agency currently has 1404 cameras in use to monitor roads and public
spaces.
There are 91 Hikvision cameras connected to the Transport Operation Centres. None of these
cameras are owned or managed by Waka Kotahi, however their output images are integrated into our
camera system.
Al relevant external parties have already been advised that these cameras wil need to be replaced
with another brand (when due for renewal) before being connected to our camera system.
In line with Waka Kotahi policy, this response wil soon be published on our website, with personal
information removed. If you would like to discuss this reply with Waka Kotahi, please contact
Ministerial Services at [NZTA request email].
Yours sincerely
Liz Maguire
Chief Digital Officer
