Health New Zealand seeking contractors for Gisborne Hospital road upgrade

Bloody typical. They can find millions for roads but can't staff the hospital properly. My wife waited 8 hours last week just to get a panadol. Farcical.

get stuffed. you think they can afford doctors when they spend millions on asphalt? priorities are cooked

good luck finding a contractor willing to work for what they'll wanna pay. i did a site visit there years ago, the carpark is a mess. bout time tbh

yeah nah they'll just get some mate of a mate from wellington, we all know how that goes

Aria Wilson2026-07-06T00:18:32.000Z

maybe if they spent less on road upgrades and more on actual health care we wouldn't have this mess

ffs just fix the potholes, stop the nonsense tenders. my dad's a truck driver and he says it's like driving on the moon out there.

spot on mate, roads are dangerous as. seen a car lose a wheel in a pothole last month

Morgan Lee2026-07-06T01:00:32.000Z

lol watch this take 5 years and cost triple. classic nz infrastructure right there

NZ Herald2026-07-06T01:12:32.000Z

and they wonder why people are pissed off. absolute joke of a government.

Honestly who cares about the road, what about the shortage of doctors?? My friend works there and says the ER is chaos.

Kai Thompson2026-07-06T01:49:32.000Z

truth. upgrade the road but the people inside still can't get a bed. priorities eh
