The objective of the report was to assess the likely economic impacts of Auckland Manukau Eastern Transport Initiative AMETI, building on the experience of analyses of the Eastern Transport Corridor (ETC) in 2004, and other subsequent BERL work on transport and urban development in Auckland Region.

In 2004, BERL completed reports on the economic and strategic importance of the Eastern Transport Corridor developments as then proposed. The reports prepared for Auckland City Council, Manukau City Council and Transit New Zealand were Investing for Growth: Economic and Strategic Importance of the Eastern Transport Corridor, Kel Sanderson et.al., March 2004; and Investing for Growth: Economic and Strategic Importance of the Eastern Transport Corridor - Case Study for Effects in Manukau City, Kel Sanderson et.al., June 2004.
