Auckland Branch – Annual Quiz Night

Form a team with your colleagues and battle it out against your fellow Transportation Group members to decisively determine Auckland’s smartest transport team.  Last year was another great success with close to 100 participants. Ideally we are looking for company/organisation teams of between 4 – 8 people.  If you have more than 8 wishing to attend then we ask that you create two or more teams. If you are an independent then please let us know and we will team you up with others in a similar position as we did last year.

The winning team will be awarded a $100 bar tab plus the honour of winning and all the associated bragging rights entailed therein.

The committee will sponsor nibbles, and a free drink for the first 20 people through the door.

The Paddington will be running the quiz for us and it will be in the normal format.

Team registration closes on Tuesday 10th August at 5:00pm.  Please provide details of Team Name, Organisation, and the number of team members so as to allow us to finalise catering.

Auckland Branch – Creating Safer Streets: Emily Place Site Visit

Learn about the Emily Place Innovating Streets for People pilot and how it aims to improve Emily Place for everyone by trialling ways to make the street and reserve safer and more pleasant for the many residents, visitors, and businesses in the area. The tour will be led by project manager Claire Davis (Auckland Council).

The group will meet at the new public plaza space by Emily Place Reserve.

You’ll need to wear comfortable walking shoes and dress appropriately for the weather.

The location is easily accessible by foot, bike, or public transport. You can plan your journey to and from the event in advance using Auckland Transport’s Journey Planner or AT Mobile.

Open to members and non-members.

Auckland Transport’s Connected Communities Project (Webinar)

The Transportation Group – Auckland Branch will be hosting an online presentation looking at Auckland Transport’s Connected Communities Project. Connected Communities is a new way of doing things and has the potential to transform central Auckland, providing new transport options across the isthmus. The programme forms part of the wider group of interconnected infrastructure and operational projects which includes the City Rail Link, Eastern Busway, city-wide safety improvements, Customer Experience, and the Urban Cycleways Programme.

As the lead planner on the project, Anthony Pearse, Auckland Transport will provide viewers with the background, current status, milestones and next steps of the project. After an initial presentation, there will be an opportunity for discussion and feedback. All are welcome to attend this free event.
