Transdev Auckland, formerly Veolia Transport Auckland, and Connex Auckland was a subsidary of Transdev Australasia that ran Auckland's urban passenger trains under contract from Auckland Transport on infrastructure owned and managed by KiwiRail. Auckland Transport receives funding to subsidise these services from the NZ Transport Agency, which receives funding from road user taxes and Crown appropriations, and from the Auckland Council through rates. Transdev also operates Wellington's commuter rail services as Transdev Wellington since July 2016.
