Billie Moore: Airports Association CEO on the launch of the new freight plan - The Mike Hosking Breakfast

The Government's launched an NZTA-backed freight action plan, which will link big airport projects with road and rail. 

It'll look at national demand and set up a freight advisory council after calls from the industry to make exports more competitive, and imports more affordable. 

Airports Association Chief Executive Billie Moore told Mike Hosking that although the plan focuses on roading, it needs to bring all modes of transport together. 

She says there's only so much that can be achieved through airports investing in cargo, if the road connections aren't good enough.
