Congestion charge for Onewa Road? The NZ Parliament is currently consulting on a proposal for congestion charges for Auckland. Submissions can be made online and close on Thursday 20 May 2021.

Parliament are wanting to know your views on different congestion charge options, such as when entering the city centre, or using “strategic corridors”. They are proposing to start rolling out these charges when the City Rail Link opens.

To me it appears from the attached map that Parliament are suggesting that the lower North Shore could be included in Phase 1 (2025) or Phase 2 (2028) of the roll-out. Does that mean that they are proposing congestion charges for Onewa Road and Lake Road (Takapuna/Devonport)?

Please have your say on whether or not you support being charged to travel to/from the city centre, and to use “strategic corridors” which may include Onewa Road and Lake Road.
