Christopher Luxon is adamant the numbers stack up in National’s plan to redirect Government spending from road safety to road maintenance.
The National Party leader is promising to re-prioritise if the party wins October's election.
It would spend less on road safety measures like speed bumps, median barriers, speed limit reductions, and ad campaigns, so more could be spent on road renewals and pot hole repairs.
Luxon told Mike Hosking that it's a better use of taxpayer dollars.
He claims the average speed bump costs $330k, which is the average cost of rehabilitating a kilometre of road.
