National Road Carriers applauds National Party focus on roading essentials and resilience

Freight industry body National Road Carriers Association (NRC) agrees with the National Party’s focus on the essentials of building and maintaining the roading network and road resilience in its transport policy announced today.

The National Party’s transport policy is focused on bringing back roads of national significance, resilience projects and better public transport.

The policy promises extending four-lane highways in the northern Golden Triangle, and to Wellington Airport and the Christchurch northern motorway, a nationwide road upgrade programme, and resilience projects in weather-damaged areas including the Brynderwyns, Hawke’s Bay, and upgrading the Napier to Gisborne and Napier to Taupo roads.
