Far North District Council
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.

Let people choose how they travel and stop social engineering through anti-car policies.
Continue the improved level of service on unsealed roads, water tabling and culvert and drain clearing to prevent lapses.
Support the realignment of the Pou Herenga Tai Twin Coast Trail Opua end for its economic, social and health benefits.
