ARTA's vision is to provide Auckland with a world-class transport system that makes Auckland an even better place to live, work and play.
ARTA also has roles in improving road safety and administering the Total Mobility scheme, which helps fund transport for people with disabilities.
ARTA’s activities must aim to achieve the Auckland region’s transport goals, as set out in the Auckland Regional Land Transport Strategy (RLTS). This outlines what Auckland needs to have an effective and efficient transport system that can cope with the demands of many more people living and working in the region over the next 10 years.
