Performance of land transport

This data is intended for use by sector partners and stakeholders in decisions that improve land transport for all New Zealanders.

Road safety action plans

Road safety action plans provide a sense of urgency, focus and commitment to mitigate road safety risks. The plans record agreed local road safety risks, objectives and targets, actions, and monitoring and reviewing processes. Each plan is the result of collaboration by key road safety partners (eg Land Transport NZ, Transit NZ, local and regional authorities, NZ Police, ACC). The plans are the primary mechanism for coordination of education, engineering and enforcement approaches to road safety problems at sub-regional levels.
