This research aims to estimate the economic impacts of (land-base) inter-urban connectivity between Auckland, Hamilton and Tauranga, particularly around connections to air and sea ports. As part of this research it will be necessary to develop a General Equilibrium model capable of responding to the effects of changes in network connectivity.

The concept of network connectivity and its role in providing for economies of scale for individuals and firm across nodes (locations) has recently been identified, however there is little international or New Zealand research on understanding the value of network connectivity and its role in productivity, in particular through the provision of transport links between nodes (locations).
