Find out how the ONF integrates with other planning processes, tools and frameworks.
The ONF is a key input into the development of Regional Land Transport Plans (RLTP) and the 2027-2030 NLTP and beyond. ONF language will be required for all modes for the 2027–2030 NLTP. In particular, Road Controlling Authorities (RCAs) should ensure their General Traffic (GT) and Freight (FT) classifications are transitioned from One Network Road Classification (ONRC) to ONF for use in their Activity Management Plans (AMPs).
Ngā Kaupapa Huarahi o Aotearoa – National Land Transport Programme (NLTP)
Regional land transport plans (RLTPs) are 6-year plans that document the regions' land transport objectives, policies, and measures as well as providing a statement of transport priorities for the region. The plans incorporate programmes of regional land transport activities, including those activities proposed for inclusion in the National Land Transport Programme. They are reviewed after 3 years.
Regional Land Transport Plan (RLTP)
Referencing the ONF classifications helps to strengthen the story in RCAs' AMPs, particularly to describe the aspirations they have in the medium to long term for corridors and surrounding integrated land use plans.
RCAs should ensure their General Traffic (GT) and Freight (FT) classifications are transitioned from ONRC to ONF for use in their 2027-2030 AMPs. ONF language is now required for all modes.
Activity Management Plans (AMPs)
InvestHub will contain ONF guidance and tools to provide contextual links for land transport practitioners who are preparing business cases and investment bids enabled by the NLTP.
Investment Decision Making Framework
We're completing some work with the NLTP Development team to understand the interrelationship between the Benefits Framework and the use of ONF, findings will be available when this is completed.
The ONF provides a common language to clearly and effectively describe why investment needs to be made. It is an important foundational step in the process to help identify the challenges and outcomes of a transport network and will help RCAs inform and enhance their future business cases and investment bids.
Business case approach guidance
The AMDS is a tool with a common language that is being developed by NZTA and the sector to create a standard for infrastructure assets and will be used by all RCAs.
The ONF will enable classification of the transport network. Coupled with the approach of AMDS, this will allow for the consumption of the ONF data into the AMDS network model, to enable current and future analysis across the entire NZ transport network.
Asset Management Data Standard
The guide seeks to provide a useful way to capture the connection between road safety, liveability, mode shift and applying movement and place through the One Network Framework.
