The Transport Agency's spending is in the spotlight.
The Transport Minister's calling NZTA's costs “eye-watering” and excessive after revealing a near $800 million spend on traffic management over the past three years.
Simeon Brown says a new framework is coming to reduce costs.
Traffic Direct General Manager Dev Strause told Mike Hosking it will be made, but change doesn't happen overnight.
He says it takes a bit of fine tuning to be able to redevelop and retrain all the workers, especially when some have been in the industry for over a decade.
