New Zealand extends Te Huia rail service to June 2027 to evaluate ridership and infrastructure impacts.
The New Zealand Transport Agency has extended the Te Huia rail service between Auckland and Waikato for 12 months, now running until June 2027, following a request from the Waikato Regional Council.
The extension aims to assess passenger growth, the impact of the City Rail Link’s 2026 opening, and ongoing efforts to boost ridership and revenue.
Government funding will remain at 60%, with local funding expected to stay at current levels.
The service, which began as a five-year trial, has seen strong public support and 98% customer satisfaction, serving as both a commuter route and weekend city connector.
Regional councils back the extension, citing its role in supporting sustainable development and reducing congestion amid ongoing housing growth.
