Simon Maude: Politicians backing motorway tolls have my supportCHRIS McKEEN / FAIRFAX NZ Simon Maude scooters to work in Fairfax Media's Auckland CBD newsroom - a cost-effective but often dicey motorway commute. I will vote for local and central government politicians who support Auckland motorway tolling, I won't vote for those who don't. We could have had a mass-transit system by now, rail or light rail, but no, the answer was more lanes and ramps on our badly designed motorway network. I weighed my transport options, would it be car, bus, train (don't be silly Simon what major city needs a complete rail network?). ONE News Simon Bridges prefers to say variable network pricing for the way to ease Auckland's traffic woes.
