Developing Auckland’s Rail Transport (DART) Project
Project DART is a series of improvements to Auckland's rail network which, when completed, will allow more frequent and reliable passenger services and improve pedestrian safety around the rail network.
The project is being carried out over a three year period from 2006 - 2009 and is the most significant redevelopment of the rail network in New Zealand since the 1980s.
Auckland Electrification ProjectElectrification of the rail network is a vital and major step towards building a modern, sustainable passenger transport system for Auckland. It will mean quieter and more reliable train services, allowing rail to take a more prominent role in the region's transport mix.
The Government gave the green light for ONTRACK to build the infrastructure required for electrification of the Auckland metropolitan rail network in the 2007 Budget - with a deadline of 2013 to get the job done.
