Opposition leader Chris Minns said deals made by the current government were driving record tolls.
“This mess is Dominic Perrottet’s own making – they have signed secret contracts and privatised toll roads,” Mr Minns said. “Toll companies can’t lose,Sydney drivers can’t win.”
The change would be on top of the government’s existing rebate of up $750 for eligible drivers and M5 cashback scheme.
Fels would lead a review into long-term reform options to overhaul the tolling system in NSW,including reviewing contracts with private road operators,the biggest of which in Sydney is Transurban.
A cap of $60 a week would commence on January 1,2024 if Labor wins the March election and any tolls charged above the cap would be refunded on a quarterly basis by Service NSW.
