There are hopes investment in rail is just the boost Auckland needs.
The Government will tip more than $600 million of Government funding in Budget 2025 to fully fund the Rail Network Investment Programme until 2027.
The freight network will get $461 million, and $143 million will be spent on Auckland and Wellington's metropolitan trains.
Greater Auckland director Matt Lowrie told Kerre Woodham some maintenance hasn't been done for decades.
He says that now that funding is coming through, they鈥檒l be able to get improvements done so they can actually maintain and continue to improve services.
