925 (2026). Tangi Utikere to the Minister of Transport: What advice has the Minister received on whether specific Roads of National Significance projects are expected to worsen, improve, or have no impact on road safety outcomes?

Hon Chris Bishop: I have been advised by NZ Transport Agency that road safety outcomes were considered as part of the Investment Cases for the projects. I have not received any standalone advice on this topic.
