Answer

I am advised that NZ Transport Agency Waka Kotahi (NZTA) is retaining the current emergency works FAR policy for 2027–30. Details of how the emergency works FAR is calculated for each approved organisation is on the NZTA website here: https://www.nzta.govt.nz/partners/planning-and-investment/planning-and-investment-knowledge-base/2024-27-nltp-investment-requirements/202427-nltp-activity-classes-and-work-categories/other-work-categories-2/wc-141-emergency-works-2
