MTA welcomes Government’s plans to invest in roading


The Government’s recent announcement of plans to invest and focus on roading projects over the next ten years are welcomed says Motor Trade Association (MTA).


MTA spokesperson Ana Zandi says that this decision will allow more New Zealanders to drive with fewer issues and have better access to our roads.


“These projects will not only help to improve road-user safety and congestion problems but also support economic growth and development. Even though roads form only one part of New Zealand’s transport system, this still remains a primary way many New Zealander’s travel to work as well as being an important method of exporting goods to market.”


“It’s also good to see Government thinking ahead and investing in roading infrastructure for the future,” adds Zandi.
