Road Efficiency Group

The Road Efficiency Group (REG) was formed in 2012 on the recommendation of the Road Maintenance Task Force. It is a collaborative project between local government and the NZ Transport Agency.

Its aim is to create and embed a new national funding and activity management structure for roads (the One Network Road Classification).

It's about improving value-for-money, focusing on customer outcomes, consistency and collaboration – by the sector for our customers.

Membership and support

REG members volunteer their time and come from rural, provincial and metropolitan local authorities, Local Government NZ, and the NZ Transport Agency.

Our work

REG’s work aims to address high variability in service and costs across the national road network.

One Network Road Classification

The One Network Road Classification (ONRC) is a classification system, which divides New Zealand’s roads into six categories based on how busy they are, whether they connect to important destinations, or are the only route available.

Workshops and support

REG’s Capability and Enabling subgroup provides workshops and practical support to help Road Controlling Authorities (RCAs) develop their business cases and tell an effective investment story.

Data

The ONRC business case approach requires robust data. Local authorities must use the ONRC performance measures in their reporting, and many of the measures must be comparable across the country to enable meaningful comparative reporting and benchmarking.
