New Zealand is a nation of car lovers – but it’s a costly fascination, not only for motorheads but for the Government.   Roads require maintenance and repair. Roads sometimes need to be replaced or rerouted. And that requires the Government to cough up the cash.  So what happens when we run out of funding – not only for new motorways, but for the basic repairs to stop the cracks from showing?  Today, NZ Herald senior political reporter and host of On the Tiles, Thomas Coughlan, joins Damien to discuss his recent reporting into funding shortfall and budget blowouts.
