Answer

It found the programme is well governed, led and resourced, has stood up the initial Transport, Ticketing and Payments team and is poised for the first delivery of functionality in December 2024, followed by a staged rollout in Canterbury in the first half of 2025. While a copy of the review was not provided, briefings provided in December 2024 and February 2025 included advice on the October 2024 Gateway Review.
