Justin Tighe-Umbers: The National Road Carriers Association CEO on the Government's draft transport plan
The National Road Carriers Association says the Government's draft transport plan is a great step in the right direction.
It features a half billion-dollar pothole prevention fund and 15 Roads of National Significance.
It'll be funded in part by a $25 increase in vehicle registration fees in each of the next two years.
Chief Executive Justin Tighe-Umbers told Mike Hosking that the policy's focused on the right stuff.
He says it's a strong start, so they're pleased, and it's about getting back to basics.
