Nick Leggett: Transporting NZ CEO says it "isn't a surprise" there's no evidence for serious transport decisions - The Mike Hosking Breakfast

A suggestion the Government isn't doing its homework over proposed changes to speed limits across the country.

No cost-benefit analysis is planned as part of the major shake-up to speed limits.

Dropping speed limits by as much as 40 kilometres per hour in some places will slow freight movements and add extra costs.

Transporting New Zealand Chief Executive Nick Leggett told Mike Hosking that sadly it isn't a surprise evidence hasn't been produced for these serious transport decisions.

He says policy and funding decisions need to be justified in transport- and this is another example of where that hasn't happened.
