Whakarāpopototia te tuhinga:  Ko tētahi o ngā rori e ono kei roto tonu i te āhua kino ahakoa te nui o ngā poka e whakakiia ana, me te nui ake i te £12 piriona e hiahiatia ana hei whakatika, e ai ki tētahi rangahau hou. Ko te pūtea ohotata a te Kāwanatanga i muri i ngā waipuke o te tau kua hipa, i āwhina ki te whakapiki i te 33% o ngā mahi whakatikatika poka, engari kāore anō kia heke te nui o te moni e hiahiatia ana hei whakaara i te whatunga i Ingarangi me Wales, e ai ki tētahi pūrongo. I kii te Asphalt Industry Alliance (AIA) £ 12.16 piriona e hiahiatia ana kia hoki mai te whatunga huarahi o te rohe ki roto i te 'whakaaro' tika, me te kii ko te moni i whakapauhia ki te whakakii i te 2.7 miriona poka i roto i te tau kua hipa kua 'whakamoea'. Ko te whakapae o te wa e hiahiatia ana hei whakakore i nga whakapainga o te whakatikatika kua piki ake i te tau ki te 13 tau, e ai ki te purongo. Ko tētahi o ngā rori e ono kei roto tonu i te āhua kino ahakoa te nui o ngā poka e whakakiia ana, me te nui ake i te £12 piriona e hiahiatia ana hei whakarite i ngā mahi whakatika, e ai ki tētahi rangahau hou. I kitea hoki e te rangahau ā-tau he pikinga 'nui' i te nui o te utu i utua hei utu ki nga kaihautū waka i Ingarangi, e rua ki te neke atu i te £20 miriona i waho o Rānana. I kitea ko nga utu kaimahi ki nga mana whakahaere o te rohe mo te tukatuka kereme kua piki ki te tata ki te £ 18 miriona, e rite ana ki te 225 haora ia marama mo ia mana whakahaere, i kitea. Ko Alan Mackenzie, te tumuaki o te AIA, i mea: "Ko te pūtea ohorere a te Kāwanatanga mō te whakatikatika i ngā poka me ngā waipuke i muri i te hotoke o te tau kua pahure ake nei, i tino whai wāhi ki ngā āhuatanga i whakaaturia i roto i te rangahau o tēnei tau. "Ko te mea nui, ko te moni e whakapauhia ana ki te whakakii i nga rua miriona rua miriona kua ripoatahia kua ngaro - kaore i te whai hua me te wa poto i roto i tona whai hua. 'Na, ahakoa e mōhio ana mātou kei te whakatairanga te Tari Whakawhitinga i ngā mahi whakatikatika tuturu, ko te take tonu, he pai ake te whakapau moni ki te ārai i ngā poka i te tīmatanga. 'Ko te £6 piriona o te pūtea i whakaaria mai i waenganui i te 2015 me te 2021 e manakohia ana, a ko te tumanako ka whakapumautia e te kawanatanga hou. Engari ko te mea pono, ahakoa he nui te moni whakangao, ka nui noa iho mo nga mana o te rohe ki te takahi i te wai, kaore hoki e mahi i tetahi mea...
Kotahi i roto i te ono o ngā rori kei roto tonu i te āhua kino ahakoa i muri i te whakatikatika o te miriona o ngā poka. E mea ana te Rōpū Ahumahi Pūngāwerewere i pau te moni i te whakakii i te 2.7 miriona i pau noa iho. E ai ki tētahi pūrongo kia 13 tau te roa o te whakatikatika i ngā mahi whakatikatika.
