"SuperMaxx" is an effective, low cost, affordable, integrated,
public transport system for Auckland which can commence within 6 months.
By maximising efficiency of public transport routes 30% more passengers could be handled with approximately 200 less buses on the road leading to far less pollution and congestion.
"Supermaxx" is a time based system offering 2 hour, 1 day, 7 day, 30 day electronic passes. Main unit is a 30 day pass for $60 providing unlimited travel on all "Supermaxx" train and bus services in the area bounded by Albany, Papakura, Henderson, Howick. This is a massive cost reduction for most commuters. "Supermaxx" will reduce the subsidies required by $50-$60 million per annum.
It is long past time we took action to bring our transport system into the 21st Century. The original "Supermaxx" proposal has been with the Auckland Regional Council and Auckland Regional Transport Authority for over 3 years.
During that time:
** Ratepayers and taxpayers have been charged over $120 million in taxes more than they should have.
** Everyone travelling more than 2 stages under the present fare system has been forced to pay vastly higher fares than they needed to
** Over 150,000 tons of carbon and other pollutants have totally unnecessarily been pumped into our skies.
** Aucklanders have been forced to continue to endure the current dysfunctional system
** Integrated bus and train public transport from Wellsford to Waiuku
** Minimaxx user pay services in the original proposal converted to LOCAL bus services with fares included in Supermaxx passes
** Over 85% of Aucklanders will now be within a 15 minute walk of a "Supermaxx" bus or train stop.
** New REGIONAL 30 day pass for $90 introduced covering all public transport bus and train services within the Supercity boundaries from Wellsford to Waiuku.

AUCKLAND CBD ISSUES
Efficiency of travel through the CBD area is critical to the success of "Supermaxx". There is not necessarily too much traffic in the inner city. It just takes too long to get anywhere through the mass of traffic lights. Other creative solutions are needed to speed the flow of pedestrians and traffic and make the CBD area a vastly better place to live, work, shop, and play.ARTA ISSUES
Newmarket Rail Station
Kingdon St station has been demolished. Inefficiency, extra cost, congestion on the tracks, and public inconvenience are being forced on Aucklanders by ARTA and ONTRACK.

These are challenging times. For decades we have been undermining the foundations of society in the environmental, social, economic, and spiritual areas - in other words every facet of a flourishing society. Now we are reaping what we have sown. Until we face up to some basic facts and rebuild the foundations we will not live in the quality society that most, if not all, of us wish for!- There is a solution to every problem! We need honesty, humility, integrity, compassion, and courage to examine the issues, find the solutions, and implement them. I hope this web site will help Stephen Greenfield
