The research seeks to determine:

a. how and the extent generalised cost between private vehicles and public transport/active modes need to change for mode shift to occur in our three largest urban areas – Auckland, Wellington and Christchurch.
b. how to sequence the implementation of effective mode shift measures in our three largest urban areas.

The objectives of the research are:

a. Assess and determine the generalised costs necessary to facilitate mode shift from cars/light passenger vehicles to public transport and active modes for Auckland, Wellington and Christchurch to reduce GHG emissions.
b. Assess the different types of policy instruments that can be used to change the generalised costs between modes for Auckland, Wellington and Christchurch to reduce GHG emissions.
c. An assessment of the effectiveness of identified behavioural and economic instruments to reduce GHG emissions and their socio-economic impacts, including equity/distributional impacts in Auckland, Wellington and Christchurch.
d. Identify and assess how to sequence mode shift policy instruments to reduce carbon/GHG emissions in Auckland, Wellington and Christchurch.
e. Assess the types and quality of public transport that needs to be provided before and after the implementation of road charging/pricing systems in Auckland, Wellington and Christchurch.
f. Assess the public transport fare structure that needs to be implemented prior to and after the implementation of road charging/pricing in Auckland, Wellington and Christchurch.
g. Quantify the estimated range of GHG emissions of implementing the various policy approaches.
