The Museum of Transport and Technology was opened in 1964 and operated by the Museum of Transport and Technology Trust Board.
The Trust Board was superseded by the passing of the Museum of Transport and Technology Act in March 2000, which established the Museum of Transport and Technology Board.
The Museum displays examples of New Zealand's and Auckland's transport and technological heritage, and has as its core activities the conservation of that heritage, education concerning that heritage, and recreation involving that heritage.
The Auckland City local council meet the net operating cost of maintaining, operating and developing MOTAT.
MOTAT is grateful for the support and advice provided by members of the Electoral College who approve the annual museum levy.
The Corporate section provides readers with information of the Museum's operations and reporting.
