From: Hemant

Dear Auckland Transport,

Please note in the below request there are 4 pieces of information requested. 1)a), 1)b), 2), 3)a) and 3)b). Please let me know if I should split the request into different requests.

On this page: https://at.govt.nz/potholepromise you say:

1) "More than 1,000km of these roads have an average of 10,000 vehicle movements a day. These are our high-volume arterial roads." - Can you please provide
1) a) An excel list and
1) b) A map
of what roads this refers to.

2) "The rest of our network is a little more complex, so you’ll see us out there fixing potholes on all other sealed roads within 5 days. There might be a small number that take a little longer." - What is the percentage that you are aiming for to be fixed within 5 days?

3) Taking these three statements together
3) 1)"We manage around 7,000km of sealed roads."
3) 2) Our roads have a shelf life of 10 to 15 years before they need to be replaced.
3) 3) Every summer we get out and reseal and rebuild around 400km of our roads
That means that between 1000 and 3000 km's of roads are not going to replaced before they are past their shelf life. Based on (7000 - 15x400) = 1000 | (7000-10*400)=3000
3) a) What is the plan for these roads? and
3) b) which roads are they?

Yours faithfully,

H
