Budget 2011 - Transport
This table outlines the New Zealand Government's planned transport spending for the 2011/12 budget year.
Actual spending for the previous four years is on the left and includes, for the sake of comparison, the previous Labour Government's final spending in 2008.
The numbers are taken from the Vote Transport. A link to the primary source used, from Treasury's website, can be found at the bottom of the page.
Please note that some of the allocation titles have been shortened for the sake of space.
Figures for each allocation are in millions of NZ$.
