NLTP - National Land Transport Programme

2007/08 National Land Transport Programme

Overview

Land Transport NZ has adopted the 2007/08 NLTP at a level of $2.14 billion, excluding the cost of the road policing programme (GST exclusive). In forecasting this level of expenditure, Land Transport NZ has taken account of the estimated balance in the NLTA at the end of the 2006/07 year and the expected revenue for the 2007/08 year.

In adopting the 2007/08 NLTP, Land Transport NZ is satisfied the programme contributes to its strategic objective of an integrated, safe, responsive and sustainable land transport system.

It is also satisfied the programme contributes to the objectives of the NZTS:

  1. assisting economic development
  2. assisting safety and personal security
  3. improving access and mobility
  4. protecting and promoting public health, and
  5. ensuring environmental sustainability.

Land Transport NZ has also taken into account relevant regional land transport strategies and the National Energy Efficiency and Conservation Strategy.

For 2007/08 the NLTP includes Land Transport NZ’s Land Transport Programme (formerly known as the Safety Administration Programme). This is the annual programme of land transport education and enforcement activities delivered by Land Transport NZ, NZ Police and communities.

The programme of activities included in the 2007/08 NLTP are shown in each of the 14 regional sections, and the nationally delivered programmes section which lists activities delivered nationally, and allocations made to activities funded through a national block allocation. The road policing programme and research education and training activities included in this programme are shown under separate sections.

Table 1 shows the forecast 2007/08 expenditure on the NLTP for the activity classes in the NLTP. For reference purposes the 2006/07 programme is also shown. Table 2 shows approved activities in the 2007/08 NLTP and forecast expenditure on each activity class that is not yet committed to projects or programmes.
