市长韦恩·布朗和奥克兰交通局的迪恩·金普顿去试驾

Share:

奥克兰市长韦恩·布朗一直对奥克兰交通(AT)及其首席执行官迪恩·金普顿持批评态度。两位领导人最近有机会在芒格尔巴士站试驾奥克兰的第一辆电动双层巴士。该活动为评估它们之间的关系提供了机会。

布朗一直在大声疾呼自己与AT的分歧,特别是在取消地区燃油税以及由此削减议会项目方面。尽管有人声称他无权指示 AT,但布朗坚称自己有这样做的道德权力。他说他指示他们如何运行事情,他们已经倾听并理解了。

布朗还表示,由于燃油税的结束,诸如东部公交专用道最后阶段之类的项目需要削减,他并不是在虚张声势。他认为 AT 不听他的话是不明智的,因为他是新西兰得票最多的人。

当他竞选市长时,布朗呼吁AT的董事会辞职。选举后,运输组织主席辞职。现在,布朗希望AT重新获得其社会执照,他对乘客人数的增加感到高兴。

另一方面,金普顿表示,尽管市长在沟通方式上存在差异,但他对他充满信心。他透露,他们最近讨论了奥克兰的几个重要话题,包括关于陆路交通的政府政策声明、综合交通计划和区域燃油税。

去年,奥克兰市议会指示AT裁员价值3000万美元,这导致该机构在裁员上花费了600万美元,裁掉了150个职位。金普顿表示,他将在本月晚些时候与AT董事会讨论自己的职位。当被问及是否支持金普顿继续留任时,布朗说这不关他的事,因为他无权告诉AT他们应该雇用谁。
