NZ TRANSPORT AGENCY - CONSULTATION OPEN ON MAORI BILINGUAL TRAFFIC SIGNS PROGRAMME

Lee (Lianne) from Glenview

How could we ever forget the complete and utter waste of taxpayers/ratepayers money spent by the Hamilton City Council and the NZ Transport Agency on the Innovating Streets programme? Bearing this in mind, and the increasingly poor condition of many of our roads which require massive amounts of funding to repair, last week the transport agency announced that its He Tohu Huarahi Māori Bilingual Traffic Signs programme was going out for public consultation. If successful, it would result in destination signs, public and active transport signs, walking and cycling signs, general advisory and warning signs, plus motorway and expressway signs being replaced with bilingual versions.

To assist those who wish to make a submission, I have copied the following information from the NZ Transport Agency's website at www.nzta.govt.nz...
