Poll: Do you reckon we should get more concrete roads?

Libby Reporter from Waikato Local

Concrete roads, uncommon in New Zealand, could offer significant savings in time and money for local and central government if used for the Cambridge to Piarere Expressway, according to a newly released industry report.

The report, The Case for Concrete Roads, was launched by Transport Minister Simeon Brown during an event at Claudelands on Wednesday.
