Strategic Transport Planning represents a critical function within NZTA's planning and investment framework, providing a robust, stable long-term direction about how transport challenges should be addressed over time,
and identifies/refines activities to inform subsequent prioritisation and project development processes.

The programme encompasses diverse planning challenges ranging from urban corridor optimisation to cross-regional network integration, requiring comprehensive transport planning expertise that spans multiple
disciplines including traffic engineering, transport modelling, economic assessment, land-use integration, and
stakeholder engagement.

Suppliers will need to provide strong technical skills in transport planning and modelling, data analysis, and strategic thinking. Project management capability and storytelling ability are needed to ensure that a clear and effective plan is delivered within the project time and cost constraints. A degree of local knowledge and having staff on the ground in each location is also required.
