Corridor Access Requests (CAR)

Lodge your Corridor Access Requests on Submitica or BeforeUdig, but not both.  Monthly invoices are generated for each application.

Site Traffic Management Specialist (STMS)

While we are in this transition stage to the NZGTTM, we have put the UHCC STMS delegated authority system on hold.  We will send an update regarding STMS Delegated Authority to companies and STMS once we have guidance from Upper Hutt City Council leadership.

At present, we are expecting traffic management plans to be prepared by a qualified TTM Planner.
