Tangi Utikere: Labour transport spokesperson on Labour's plan to cap public transport fares

View descriptionShare
 

Labour's hinting it'll reprioritise Roads of National Significance projects in the Land Transport Fund, if elected this year.

It's promising to cap public transport fares at $20 a week in Auckland, Wellington and Christchurch, and $10 everywhere else.

It says it'll pay for it from the fund, at $65 million a year.

National claims the fund's already oversubscribed. 

Labour's Tangi Utikere says that's because of National's own projects. 

"Even the Government itself has realised that there needs to be a reprioritisation in terms of many of the projects."
