Niue may use recycled plastic in the repair of its roading network.

The island's government approached New Zealand earlier this year for help to rebuild its ailing infrastructure, including its roads.

Now the premier, Sir Toke Talagi, said they were looking to see if research undertaken in Christchurch into the use of a reconstituted plastic for road sealing may be an answer for Niue.
