Aucklanders have a big question to answer, as the council reveals three congestion charging proposals.

They'll apply to different zones, with charges ranging from $2 to $7 dollars, depending on the times.

The public can submit opinions in November. 

Councillor Shane Henderson says it's important to outline all the possible options, and they want feedback before they move forward.

"That's what Aucklanders should be feeding back to us - how far we want to go. I mean, the wider we go, the more benefits we have in terms of congestion. But also, we've got to look at the costs as well."
