Poll: Best road to fix?
Two people have died on the East Taupo Arterial Road, between the Wairakei roundabout and the SH5 Napier-Taupo Road roundabout, since it was build in 2009.
The Govt will be widening the road and adding safety barriers in October, at a cost of $7 million.

-
21% No, focus on another part of the State Highway
-
16.1% No, the roads are fine.
