Will Wayne's Brown's congestion charges save your commute or break Auckland?

The Front Page - A podcast by NZ Herald

Anyone who has faced a morning commute on our largest city’s roads knows that Auckland has a truly painful traffic problem. Mayor Wayne Brown has ostensibly had enough and has announced a plan for congestion charging to be introduced. Councillors are supporting the move and pushing ahead with the plan, but there are also serious concerns about the impact this will have on low-income earners. So how will the plan work in practice? And more importantly, will it actually help to reduce traffic? Today on The Front Page, NZ Herald Super City reporter Bernard Orsman breaks down the details of the big changes coming to Tāmaki Makaurau’s roads.    Follow The Front Page on iHeartRadio, Apple Podcasts, Spotify or wherever you get your podcasts.
