Widening the runway, yes, but other considerations are also required like types of approach, RNP perhaps, allowing jets down to a lower altitude, and strengthening the runway to take heavier jets, especially those that will be heading back across the ditch. There is also approach profiles to be considered especially with longer runways and then the local politics relating to the marae at the northern end of the runway and it goes on and on.
