    Who Are We?
    UITP Australia/New Zealand (UITP ANZ) is recognised as one of the foremost advocates for mass transport in the Australia/New Zealand region.  The UITP world network of offices includes Hong Kong, Canberra (established 1999), Rome, Moscow, Abidjan, Sao Paulo, Dubai and Bangalore.

    Membership in Australia and New Zealand now totals 65, representing the major players in mass transit in the region.

    UITP has over 2900 members in 90 countries of the world – members that represent the major world players in mass transport.  To strengthen its influence on the formation of policies, UITP actively takes part in the affairs of international bodies such as the European institutions, the United Nations and the World Bank.  Today UITP is actively engaged with these institutions, participating in international dialogue on issues such as sustainable development and climate change.

    UITP ANZ’s Mission
    UITPANZ assists in addressing the strategic issues faced by our members to monitor our dynamic industry environment and be in a better position to recognise the early signs of development.

    Our international links with UITP in Europe provides you with an opportunity to observe, be prepared and promote, rather than react to change.  This is the essence of UITPANZ.
