Answer

The road cone digital hotline pilot provided the public with an easily accessible channel to notify government of instances of perceived excessive or unjustified use of road cones. WorkSafe New Zealand has advised that it will be integrating the lessons learned from the pilot into work to improve the public’s experience of interacting with WorkSafe.
