What’s Ahead for Transport? An Evening of Industry, Politics & Networking

15 October 2026

What could the next government mean for transport and freight?

Join Transporting New Zealand members and industry stakeholders from across the Waikato and Bay of Plenty for an evening of discussion, networking and conversation ahead of the General Election.

With Labour and NZ First representatives confirmed to attend, the evening will provide an opportunity to hear directly from political representatives about their priorities for transport, freight and infrastructure, and what a change of government could mean for the industry.

The panel will be moderated by economist and commentator Cam Bagrie, who will bring his own insights and perspective to the conversation. There will also be a Q&A, giving attendees the opportunity to put their questions directly to the political representatives. Questions can be submitted to Darryn Faulkner ahead of the event or asked from the floor on the day.

There will also be plenty of time to catch up with others from across the transport industry, enjoy some food and drinks, and continue the conversation.
