Dear Carl
Request made under the Official Information Act 1982
Thank you for your email of 4 August 2023 requesting the following information under the Official
Information Act 1982 (the Act):
If possible, I am requesting to see files that relate to the design, route, interchanges of the
proposed Petone to Grenada highway such as any preliminary designs etc
The Petone to Grenada Link Road is currently on hold. Technical information from before the project
was paused can be found on our websit
e: https://nzta.govt.nz/projects/petone-to-grenada-link-road/,
under the ‘Archive’ heading. I am therefore refusing your request under section 18(d) of the Act as the
information you have requested is publicly available.
No further work on the design, route or interchanges of the proposed Petone to Grenada Link Road
has been undertaken since the project was put on hold in 2017/18.
Under section 28 of the Act, you have the right to ask the Ombudsman to review my decision to refuse
this request. The contact details for the Ombudsman can be located at
www.ombudsman.parliament.nz.
If you would like to discuss this reply with Waka Kotahi, please contact Shruti Gadgil, Senior Transport
Planner, by email to [email address]
Yours sincerely
Jess Andrew
Acting National Manager, System Design
