44209 (2024). Tangi Utikere to the Minister of Transport: What specific metrics will be used in the automated real-time reporting system to track progress on achieving the pothole repair targets?
Hon Simeon Brown: NZTA advises me the pothole response specification is determined by road classification. Reporting allows for pothole response data to be broken down by road classification, date and region to track progress against targets:
- 95 per cent of potholes on National Strategic High-Volume Highways, National Strategic Highways, and Regional Strategic Highways to be repaired within 24 hours of identification.
- 85 per cent of potholes on Regional Connector Highways and Regional Distributor Highways to be repaired within 24 hours of identification.
