Michael Wood: Transport Minister on the Government's new transport strategy - The Mike Hosking Breakfast

The Government is neither ruling in nor out an increase in fuel taxes as it works on a new transport strategy.

The plan, which will go out for consultation this year, promises a pivot towards public transport and away from emissions-intensive investments like highways.

It could mean swapping car parks for new bus lanes and cycleways.

Transport Minister Michael Wood told Mike Hosking that they're yet to put out a draft document.

He says governments in the past have put Road User Charges and Excise Duty taxes up, but they haven't decided that at this stage.
