The Transport Minister says there's a chance the new Northland Expressway project will have a budget blowout.
The road will go from Warkworth, east of State Highway one, and over the Brynderwyn Hills to the east of the current route, then through Whangarei.
It's expected to take around 15 years to complete and is one of New Zealand's most expensive infrastructure projects.
Transport Minister Chris Bishop told Mike Hosking they're doing a lot of preparation work now to make sure there aren't any slip-ups.
He says they're working on detailed designs, consenting work, and getting the funding model right, but slippages in cost can't be ruled out.

Play Later Play Later Lists Like LikedThe social media ban is like the pay equity debate. It's not hard to drum up a lot of emotion and it's not hard to find people who would argue passionately for it. So in this sense, perhaps unlike the pay equity debate, the Government is on the right side of this. For the record, my gut says the pay equity debate is somewhat of a risk, but is more beltway and union-based than many think, and won't ultimately damage the Government. The social media ban won't damage them either, even though it won't work, which it won't. It's not like a school phone ban. A phone ban is black and white. You either have no phones in class, or not. That has been successful because the Government played the bad guy allowing schools to do what schools should have done all along. The social media ban is designed to help parents be the bad guys, backed by the Government. We are looking to Australia for guidance. In Australia they are exempting YouTube, they are exempting Telegram, they are exempting gaming, and as part of that, the game Roblox. There are confirmed reports of paedophile rings using Roblox. So the Government are now the arbiters of what's good, what's bad, what's right and what's wrong. Libertarians will be having a field day. No wonder Act are not on board. Act also, according to their leader who was listening to the Prime Minister on this show, have not moved their position on backing the idea. Because they don’t. So the moment you go down the “Meta is bad, but YouTube is fine” pathway, that's lawyers, or possibly threats of lawyers, or possibly the pulling of a service from a country. The Government was also looking at big tech paying our local media for content they take and make money off. We were following Australia on that too. What happened to that? Trump did, and tariffs, and threats of services being pulled. Has any of it come to pass? No, it has not. Will this come to pass? No, it will not.

1 Mike's Minute: Why are we only just now getting the Waitangi Tribunal review? 2:06
2:06 Play Later Play Later Lists Like Liked2:06
Play Later Play Later Lists Like LikedAm I right to inquire just what it is that Tama Potaka has been doing for a year and a half? How many times have you heard me ask the Prime Minister on a Monday, when is the Waitangi Tribunal decision being made? What is Potaka doing with this activist tribunal? Well, on Friday we got the answer. He is going to have a review. I thought that's what he was already doing. That’s why I thought we had been waiting so long. The impatience I was showing in asking the Prime Minister is not "when is he announcing a review"? It's, when is the Government snipping the wings of taxpayer-funded activists that have lived well past their use by date? The tribunal was set up 50 years ago to settle historic grievances. To a large extent, they have done that. The fact some remain outstanding is an indictment on the people who haven't settled and various Governments who have refused to put deadlines in place. But the majority of the intent of the tribunal is over. Having ticked that box, they saw a future in a lot more money and work offering increasingly radical views for anyone who was bored and angry and wanted to take a case, so they could get a judgement to beat the Government of the day over the head with. This current Government, perceived by the aggrieved as a particularly nasty lot, have kept the tribunal flat out filing complaints and receiving damning reports. None of it means anything because the tribunal has no real legal standing. None of this is complex. Yet Potaka has been sitting there doing Lord-knows-what, to finally muster up a press release on a Friday to tell us at long, long, long, last we'll get a couple of people to wander off for a few months and come back with an opinion the Government wants, so they can do what they should have done all along - call a halt to the circus. Once again we remind you - no small amount of the support that got this Government to power was predicated on the idea that enough was enough on the Maori overreach front. Delivery has been painfully slow. Potaka has been dragging the chain. Is it possible part of the reason this Government has failed to fire more, is simply because their talk was a lot more attractive than their action?
