A new $15 million fund supporting innovative transport solutions could mark the start of a new era in the way project success is measured. \
\
Hoe ki angitū was set up by Waka Kotahi/New Zealand Transport Agency as a call for innovators to put forward their solutions to New Zealand’s biggest transport challenges, such as climate change. \
\
Bridget Doran, chairperson of the Transportation Group NZ, said the fund will allow people to come up with new transport solutions, without the need to tick off traditional transport metrics, such as the speed with which someone can get from A to B. \
\
”They’re thinking about different ways to measure success,” Doran said of Waka Kotahi and the innovation fund. “How I think they could use parts of this fund is to consider equity of outcomes.
