From the article.........

"According to the Bureau of Infrastructure, Transport and Regional Development, in 2013–14, public sector road related revenue totalled $27.8 billion.
Fuel excise contributed about $10.8 billion or 39 per cent, down from about 44 per cent in the early 2000s.

They bring in 27.8 billion for roads but how much is spent on roads? I read somewhere else that the government spends about 6 billion a year on road related things.
