News just in from NZ Transport Agency Waka Kotahi (NZTA)!

The board has met today and supported Waikato Regional Council's request for a 12-month extension of the Waikato-Auckland Te Huia trial, with the existing 60 per central government funding.

The board's decision means regional councillors will be asked to support continued local funding at the current rate when they meet next week to consider the budget for 2026/27.
