Government statement- 28 June 2013.

Broadly agrees with CCFAS findings

Doesnt agree CRL needed by 2021

Instead is committed to:

style

a o n us ness case w uc an ounc n

providing its share of funding for a construction start in 2020

(so completion mid 2020s)

Prepared to consider an earlier start to business case if :

city centre employment increases by 25 per cent over current levels (of 78,000 but

did not specify when)

annual rail patronage is on track to hit 20 million trips well before 2020 (currently

10 million)

and said that was something to discuss with council.

6Progressing city centre transport projects

Proposed CRL construction timing significantly affects the ability to deliver other importantcity centre projects

Co-ordination of city centre construction works with the CRL construction is critical toensure the road and trans ort networks remain o erational and functional.

Some of the key projects affected are:

Wellesley St bus corridor City centre public transport/bus

interchanges Ferr basin redevelo ment Port to motorway connection Quay St and seawall upgrade Victoria St Linear Park

Timing and construction implications

The CRL will create inner city disruption during cut and cover construction

Albert St dug up progressively over two years, Aotea station estimated to be underconstruction for up to five years and major east west intersections closed for at least sixmonths at a time

styleAdverse effects will include:

reduced and altered business and property access changed and limited vehicle and pedestrian movement noise and vibration

While this can be well managed, timing is critical

Intervene before problems get too bad

After 2021:

Other options for city centre access exhausted

CRL becomes more economically efficient but only because major benefits achievedthrough travel time reduction so as congestion worsens, benefits increase. Wait forproblems to worse.
