THE ROLE OF TRANSPORT IN THE FUTURE DEVELOPMENT OF THE WELLINGTON REGION

This paper examines the role of transport in the development of the Wellington Region. It looks at the relationship of transport planning with economic, community welfare, environmental and land use planning. Several distinctive strategies for developing the region's land transport system in conjunction with land use strategies are examined. A comparison of how they perform against transport efficiency, economic, community welfare and environmental objectives is made. A variety of techniques is used to determine a preferred strategy including a tool that models the community's preferences for the social benefits delivered by the transport system.
