Mayor of Auckland
Transport
Helping communities get from A to B is a key responsibility of local government, from making sure the buses run on time to providing car parking and walking and cycling paths. Whether public transport is the responsibility of the regional or local council depends on where you are in the country. Local councils also own 87% of New Zealand’s roads.

Increase size and safety of cycling lane networks to lead to and between public transport hubs.

Ban commercial live export through Auckland ports to stop animal trafficking for profit.
Create walking and cycling networks that connect parks to support both human and wildlife movement.
