Absolutely. Add to that some of the interviews saying there isn't that much traffic on these roads anyway, and that induced demand is a real thing, you have a transport policy which will add nothing to the economy of NZ except for the contractors.
Well even the contracters won't be new, they will just be taken off the other projects that lose funding from this.
