Cost of new traffic lights at Plimmerton

Tim Prebble made this Official Information request to New Zealand Transport Agency

The request was successful.

From: Tim Prebble

Dear New Zealand Transport Agency,
I would to like to know the cost of the new traffic lights that have been added 2m in front of the railway traffic lights in Steyne Ave, and 10m from the existing set of traffic lights where Steyne Ave meets St Andrews Road.

Not interested in what the new roading cost. I just want a break down of the cost of the absolutely superfluous new traffic lights. Given the state of our roads nationwide I am fascinated to know how & why this was a priority. We now have three sets of traffic lights within 10 metres.

Yours faithfully,

Tim Prebble

Thank you for your recent request under the Official Information Act 1982
(the Act).

 

It has come to our attention that some of the costs in the quote from
Downer Ltd for the Steyne Avenue traffic signals, provided to you on 24
June 2024, should have been withheld under section 9(2)(b)(ii) of the Act,
to protect information where the making available of the information would
be likely to prejudice the commercial position of the person who supplied
or who is the subject of the information.

 

Please find attached an amended version of Attachment 1, which we ask that
you refer to instead of the previously released version. We would also
request that you please delete any other copies you hold of the original
copy of this document. We are also contacting the FYI website to request
that it replace the document currently published.

 

It would be appreciated also if you could please remove the recent
Facebook post which contains the unredacted version of this quote, and
should you wish, this version may be used instead.
