NSW Labor will cap road tolls to $60 a week if it wins the March state election, as the party seeks to overhaul the bloated toll network and press infrastructure operators for a better deal.
Over 50,000 drivers would be better off under the plan, saving around $147 million over its initial two year lifespan, the party said.
Professor Allan Fels, renowned economist and former chair of consumer watchdog the ACCC, would be appointed to lead the review of the state's toll system under Labor.
