Bridges are back on the agenda for the National Party in Northland — but not the infamous "10 bridges" or even former leader Simon Bridges.
Instead, MP Matt King is pledging that a National Government, if elected, would start work on replacing one-lane bridges at Kaeo and Rangiahua in its first term of office.
King made the promise during a public meeting at Kerikeri Sports Complex on Monday, which was attended by the party's deputy leader Gerry Brownlee.
The Northland MP acknowledged planning was already under way for a new two-lane bridge at Kaeo but said that was only because National had earlier made it an election pledge.
