More in depth Every 3 years the Council submits a roading maintenance Plan to Transit NZ(now Waka Kotahi). Transit needs to approve the projects proposed. Under the ‘One Network Framework, roads are divided into categories and are funded accordingly by central Government. Rural roads are generally ‘general traffc’ or ‘freight’.

For the last Long Term Plan, (and again for this one), Transit cut the funding for our roading maintenance. This left us with a roading debt of $950,000 which will be paid down in 4 years. This funding comes from Road User Charges, Petrol Ex- cise Duty (Tax) and Licence Fees (Rego).
