31247 (2025). Tangi Utikere to the Minister of Transport: What is the average cost of a pothole repair completed within 24 hours compared to one completed outside of that timeframe?

Hon Chris Bishop: I am advised that under current maintenance contract models, NZTA does not collect individual pothole repair costs as these are generally paid for through lump sum payments as part of state highway maintenance contracts.
