Now is the time for a new way of thinking about public transport in Auckland. If Auckland is to cope with the expected growth in population, public transport must become the transport choice for more Aucklanders.
To provide a public transport network that reduces congestion and offers freedom from car dependence, making more minor improvements is not an option. Bold changes are needed to provide a better level of service, respond to public demand and provide better connections to the places Aucklanders want to go.
The New Network fundamentally changes the way bus services operate. The key principle is to run a number of high frequency services that are designed to work together through easy connections. It is based on a model working effectively in many North American and European cities.
Diagram:
Direct Service Option: many infrequent overlapping routes (Auckland now)
tn: This diagram shows a complex web of routes, with each route linking two individual locations. The locations shown include residential and activity areas. Each location has multiple routes connecting it with other locations. End tn.

Diagram:
Connective Network Option: fewer routes, more frequency (Auckland future)
tn: This diagram shows the same locations as Model 1, but each location has a single route leading from it to a central hub. End tn.
End Diagram.
Auckland's current network tries to run direct services from everywhere to everywhere at low frequencies, as in model 1 of the diagram. We are moving towards model 2, which has fewer routes but higher frequencies. The point at which the lines cross shows where a transfer would happen.
Simplicity—a simpler network will make public transport a more attractive and easier option for a wider range of activities, as well as new or one-off trips.
All Day Frequency—Instead of buses only running frequently at morning and evening peak, some buses will run frequently through the day, 7am-7pm, 7 days a week. This means that you can throw away the timetable and just "turn up and go," even on weekends. Buses will operate outside the hours 7am to 7pm, but possibly at reduced frequencies.
Connectivity—a more connected network will provide far greater access to more destinations than ever before.
Buses will run at least every 15 minutes all day on these routes:
Between Howick and the City, via Pakuranga and Panmure, also serving Newmarket, Auckland Hospital and City universities (55)
Between Botany and Panmure, via Pakuranga (53)
Between Botany, Otara, Papatoetoe and Mangere (Route 31, Southern network)
Between Mangere Town Centre and Glen Innes via Otahuhu, Sylvia Park and Panmure (Route 32, Southern network proposed for extension)
The development of Ormiston town centre and surrounding areas will be supported by a new bus service along Ormiston Rd and connections with other major centres such as Botany Town Centre, Otara, Middlemore and Manukau.
There are a number of cross town services linking the east with the south and providing connections to other major centres.
Botany Town Centre to Highbrook, Otahuhu and Onehunga
Botany Town Centre to East Tamaki, Otara, Papatoetoe and Mangere
Botany Town Centre to Ormiston and Manukau
Ormiston to Middlemore
Panmure to Sylvia Park and Middlemore by train
Panmure to Glen Innes by bus or train
A simplified and more frequent network for the East means that transfers are necessary for long journeys and access to a wide range of destinations. Apart from one frequent route into the City, other services will finish at the Panmure Station where you can transfer easily to frequent services by bus or train to the City and other destinations.
Frequent direct bus service to Auckland City Hospital from Howick, or connect to this service at Panmure. You can get to Middlemore Hospital from Ormiston via Otara, or by train from Panmure.
Certain bus services to Half Moon Bay will be timed with ferries to provide more reliable, congestion-free access in and out of the City.
Delays are often caused or made worse by long indirect routes that are difficult to schedule and operate reliably.
Shorter and more direct routes mean less travel time and less likelihood of delays.
Trains will play an important role with buses to create the frequent network.
Trains run every 10 minutes from Panmure Station to the City and Manukau during peak and are expected to run every 15 minutes off peak in the future.
Electric trains are now running on all lines. They feature the latest in technology and are designed for comfort, safety and reliability. They can also carry more passengers than other modes of transport.
"It takes 17 minutes by train from Panmure to the City and as much as 50 minutes by bus."
"A six carriage electric train takes about 625 cars off the road."
Double decker buses will be introduced on key routes in East Auckland towards the end of 2015. They will provide nearly double the capacity of normal sized buses and will contribute to reducing congestion on the roads.
"A double decker bus has about 90 seats. A normal sized bus has around 51 seats."
Over the next few years East Auckland will benefit from a number of projects, some of which are already underway, that will enhance the quality of public transport in the area. This includes various AMETI projects and building a new ferry terminal at Half Moon Bay.
The Auckland Manukau Eastern Transport Initiative (AMETI) is a group of transport infrastructure projects in south-east Auckland which will improve choices and connections in the area. It aims to get more people to use public transport to reduce congestion on our roads.

There will be the construction of the portion of the Panmure to Pakuranga busway along Lagoon Drive. It will have bus only lanes, separate from the general traffic and therefore free of congestion. This will result in more frequent and reliable bus services. It is expected to be ready in 2021.

The Half Moon Bay ferry terminal upgrade will provide an up to date, modern ferry facility in the area connecting residents of the south-east to Auckland City. It will help create a busy transport hub, especially as some connections between ferries and buses will be timed.

The New Network is designed to provide overall better quality of bus services for Aucklanders. While we strive to accommodate the needs and aspirations of everyone, we can only make changes with the resources and budget we have and what local conditions allow. Therefore, there will have to be trade-offs.
Under the New Network some journeys may require a transfer. Transfers are essential to gain frequency and simplicity, and provide access to a far greater choice of destinations.
If we tried to run direct service from everywhere to everywhere we wouldn't be able to afford to run any of them frequently enough to be worth waiting for.
Panmure Station is a good example of how transfers provide access to a wide range of destinations (City, East and South) with buses and trains running at high frequencies.
Transfers will be supported by improved frequencies, better vehicle capacity, good interchange facilities, and Simplified Zone Fares which will be implemented in 2016.
The New Network will provide shorter and more direct journeys, however you may have to walk further to a bus stop.
Visit AT.govt.nz/newnetwork for details of streets proposed to lose or gain service. Residents of these streets will receive a letter about the proposed changes and have the opportunity to give feedback.
Bus stops, where East Auckland buses start and finish in the City (currently Galway Street and Commerce Street), will be moving to Customs St in 2016.
This is due to enabling works on the City Rail Link (CRL) which will start in late 2015. It will require major changes to bus routing, terminals and bus stops in the City centre, prior to the New Network.
Construction of the 3.4 kilometre rail tunnel, when completed, will double the rail capacity of Britomart. It will include two new City centre stations and will have nearly all of the City centre within a 10 minute walk of a train station.
For the East it will mean more frequent train services into the City serving downtown (Britomart Station) and new stations to be built in midtown and Karangahape Rd.
Information about changes to current bus routes and stops will be online, on buses and at bus stops to ensure people know where they need to go.

tn: The map is of the City, highlighting the route of bus service number 55 into Britomart. Britomart Station is identified as a key connection point. The rail line (passenger service) into Britomart is shown. Arrows are used to show which direction bus service number 55 operates. The bus terminus (start/finish point) for bus service 55 is marked on Customs St. End tn.
End Map.
In 2016 we are expecting to have a new simplified fare system that calculates fares based on how many zones you travel through as part of your journey. You will not be charged more for transferring during that journey. For more information, visit AT.govt.nz/simplifiedzonefares

"We modified 20 out of 28 proposed routes for South Auckland as a result of public feedback."
Whatever is finally decided for the New Network, it will be with all of us for a long time, so it is important that we get it right. To ensure this happens we need your feedback.
Tell us what you like about the New Network and what you think should be changed or added. Does it connect most people with their main destination or their nearest local centre and with the rest of the network, for all-day travel? Is the New Network good for you, your neighbourhood and Auckland?
Sign up for the online New Network newsletter to get progress updates.

The New Network will be rolled out in phases by area. We expect changes to happen in the East in 2017.
This timeframe is required for analysing public feedback, approval of the final New Network routes and timetables, a competitive tendering process for bus operators, and for any infrastructure changes.
An information campaign will be carried out prior to changes being made, and timetables will be available ahead of time so that passengers can plan their journeys.

Old Network
Serving Auckland as it is
Some buses running frequently all day, every day
Long routes, but one bus all the way
Many different routes, difficult to understand
Small changes to improve bus services, but only benefiting a few people
New Network
Shaping Auckland to support future growth
More buses running frequently, all day, every day
Shorter routes that run more often, but may require a transfer
Fewer routes that are much easier to understand, but may require a slightly longer walk to the bus stop
Total transformation, making public transport more attractive to more people
