The Waikato/Bay of Plenty regional spending for the 1996 National Roading Programme had the following main statistics:
- $99.47m for Waikato. State Highway maintenance and construction spending was the main output class, with 50% of spending.
- $44.44m for the Bay of Plenty. State Highway maintenance and construction spending was the main output class, with 51% of spending.
Main increases for state highway spending were for additional reseals, additional pavement rehabilitation and additional road markings.
Safety projects of note were:
- Hamilton City arterial street lighting upgrade
- Rotokauri Street safety improvements, Hamilton City
- SH2 Sargents Corner realignment
- SH27 Maukoro Landing Road intersection upgrade
- SH5 Tarukenga Curves Stage 2 realignment
- SH5 Tumunui South realignment
- 32.3km of seal extension throughout both regions
No new state highway construction projects were approved because of the high value of committed works, and all but two local road construction projects were seal extension projects. The seal extension projects were in Otorohonga District, Waitomo District, Opotiki District, Western Bay of Plenty District and Whakatane District.
Committed major projects included:
- SH1 Pokeno Bypass (extension of Waikato Expressway)
- SH1 Mangatawhiri Bridge realignment (part of Waikato Expressway)
- Hamilton City Pukete Arterial Stage 1
