Answer

The NZ Transport Agency Waka Kotahi (NZTA) and the National Ticketing Solution (NTS) Programme (the Programme) is working with Cubic to introduce Motu Move later this year along with the roll out to other regions through to the end of 2027, to agreed timelines. NZTA and the Programme remain committed to delivering the NTS and have confidence that Cubic will deliver, noting the successful roll out in Christchurch.
