Simeon Brown: National Transport spokesperson on the apparent political bias from the Government's transport fund

National is claiming bias from the Government's transport fund. Councils can apply for a slice of the $350-million dollar Transport Choices Fund, for sustainable projects, such as public transit and cycleways. Opposition Transport Spokesperson Simeon Brown alleges it's mostly going to Councils represented by Labour politicians. He says Auckland's funding will primarily benefit Labour-held electorates. Transport Minister Michael Wood says he's been clear they'll work with local councils, and he's reminded Labour colleagues to engage with communities on funding bids.
