6 FUNDING PLAN Ten-year Funding Forecast The anticipated total spending forecast for ARTA, territorial authorities and State highways for the next ten years that will be delivered through the RLTP process is shown in Figure 6.1. It can be seen that total anticipated funding for these activities is reducing over time. Figure 6.1: Ten-year funding forecast for activities funded through the RLTP 1,800 1,600 1,400 1,200 Funding ($m) 1,000 800 600 400 New Infrastructure State Highways Maintenance and Renewals State Highways New Infrastructure Local Roads Maintenance and Renewals Local Roads PT Infrastructure PT Services TDM and Walking and Cycling Transport Planning 200 0 2009/10 2010/11 2011/12 2012/13 2013/14 2014/15 2015/16 2016/17 2017/18 2018/2019 The main points emerging from Figure 6.1 are: > Planned expenditure on State highway new and improved infrastructure projects is anticipated to increase markedly until 2010/11, peaking at over $532 million then declining steadily to about $225 million in 2018/19. This is largely due to many major works to the Auckland network being constructed or completed in the early years of the programme. > There is an increase in maintenance and renewals for local roads from $204 million in 2009/10 to about $297 million in 2018/19, indicating not only a larger local roading network as growth occurs, but also an ageing network requiring more significant maintenance and renewal work. > There is a significant decrease in expenditure on passenger transport infrastructure from $141 million in 2009/10 to about $8 million in 2018/19. This includes rail-related infrastructure but not electrification or electric trains. It represents a potentially worrying trend as the expenditure on public transport services is forecast to increase. A declining expenditure on passenger transport infrastructure such as bus priority measures will significantly reduce the benefits from, and increase the costs of, providing improved public transport services. 31
R and C Funding It is estimated that the entire R and C funds that will be (and have been) available are approximately $1,060 million, the exact amount will depend on the tax accrued from fuel levies in the region. Of these $1,060 million the region has spent (including spending to the end of 2008/09) $174 million. The region has made further allowance for future spending of $181 million, mainly on State highway new infrastructure, leaving $705 million available. The vast majority of R and C funds spent and allocated to date are for State highway projects. To ensure sufficient funding is available for other transport projects and modes, ARTA recommended to the NZTA that a cap of $661 million be applied to the amount that could be spent on State highway projects. This was supported by the Regional Transport Committee. The cap equates to 62% of the total R and C funds available, which is the proportion indicated in the RLTS for all roading projects. This leaves the remaining funding to be spent on TDM and passenger transport infrastructure, again in proportion to allocations indicated in the RLTS. This RLTP retains this position on the allocation of R and C funds. Figure 6.2 shows how R and C funds have been spent to date and future spending indicated in the GPS funding allocations. Committed R and C funding expenditure consists mainly of State highway but also includes public transport infrastructure such as bus priorities on arterial roads, as well as walking and cycling projects, such as the Orewa West cycleway. It should be noted that the above funding allocations for R and C funding make no allowance for road reconstruction or seal extension projects, which may make calls upon R and C funding if there are insufficient N funds available for these activity classes.
