When you think about the Auckland Council's role in transport, you need to know what roads they have jurisdiction over. The Auckland Council has jurisdiction over roads that are defined in the Land Transport Act 1998, even if they are not considered roads under the Local Government Act 1974. This means the Council's jurisdiction is not limited to just the roads defined in the Local Government Act 1974. You should understand that this is to make things clear. The law is saying that the Council's role in transport matters includes these roads, as defined in the Land Transport Act 1998.
