Podcasts about tolls

According to new data, a toll increase on the M50 in January did nothing to combat congestion on the motorway - but are we surprised about this?Joining Andrea to discuss is Editor with Completecar.ie, Shane O'Donoghue, Jamie Groom, CEO and Co-Founder of Rent a Recruiter and listeners.

The government is seeking advice on adding a toll to the Auckland Harbour Bridge, to help pay for a second harbour crossing. Greater Auckland editor Matt Lowrie spoke to Corin Dann.

The Infrastructure Minister believes a toll is a fair way of paying for a new Auckland harbour crossing. The Infrastructure Commission's 30-year plan makes 10 recommendations for what should be prioritised over the next decade, with hospital investment topping the list. The plan suggests the extra crossing in Auckland, tunnel or bridge, gets a $9 toll, but the Government is still weighing up whether the existing bridge should also be tolled. Chris Bishop told Mike Hosking ultimately, roads have to be paid for. He says the second harbour crossing will be the biggest infrastructure project ever built in New Zealand, and they think it will wind up being tolled as it's a fair way of paying for the project.

Infrastructure Minister Chris Bishop warned the Government may need to put a toll on the Auckland Harbour Bridge to fund the new Waitematā crossing. The new crossing will be tolled, but the Government is getting advice on whether the existing bridge needs to be tolled as well - in order to stop people from using the old bridge to bypass the toll. Newstalk ZB senior political correspondent Barry Soper explains why this idea isn't realistic for commuters. LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The answer depends on whether you can afford it. Congestion charging is coming and that'll add to the cost if you need to drive for work. This is only a proposal, based on the original toll, inflation-adjusted, almost 70 years ago. The suggestion, nothing's hard and fast, comes from an Infrastructure Commission report. We know there'll be a toll to cross the new bridge, or tunnel, whichever gets built - the Government already told us that. What we know now is that the both the old and the new crossing will be tolled. So, there's no avoiding it. If you can avoid it, they don't collect the revenue they need to pay for the new one. Why $9? They reckon it's the sweet spot that will get enough people using it to make enough to pay for the new build, without scaring everybody off and, again, leaving it short on revenue. So basically, driving a car over the bridge becomes a luxury item. You'll either need to be a bit rich or as happens overseas, your employer will pay for your car or Ute or truck to cross. And what about everybody else? Well, when they build the new bridge, it'll have bus lanes and other public transport options that'll be cheaper. Most people, they reckon, will opt for public transport. Which is fine, so long as public transport suddenly becomes reliable and more linked-up and bus drivers aren't getting stabbed and bashed all the time. The other point here is, is $9 actually that much money in the scheme of things? People cross the harbour by ferry for about that price. But, there's a cap to how you pay overtime and you usually haven't got car running costs and petrol, etc. So, driving would become a premium option. The question then becomes, do you not build because $9? The answer is simple, of course you do. If we complain about the cost of building stuff and never build a thing, we will continue this death spiral we've been in. We need productivity growth and infrastructure and all those good things. They don't come from nowhere. They come from good, planed investment. What we need is good financial controls on the design and construction. We need a government doing the budget, rather than a gold-plated version. And we need that government to agree with the one that comes after it that this is a national interest project. Mess with the bridge and you mess us. Then just get on a build the thing. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Since January 2025, it's cost about nine bucks USD to drive in downtown New York City during peak times. A year later, the Metropolitan Transportation Authority is heralding the policy as a success, with fewer cars downtown, a drop in pollution and even less honking. Alexa Sledge with Transportation Alternatives tells us about the policy's progress to date. Then – we check in with Mychal Johnson of South Bronx Unite about worries that his community may be facing unintended consequences as a result of the pricing.

(The Center Square) – Gov. J.B. Pritzker has signed $1.5 billion public transit-funding legislation, but Illinois consumers are expected to pay the price with higher taxes and tolls. Pritzker signed Senate Bill 2111 Tuesday at Union Station in Chicago. The measure establishes the Northern Illinois Transit Authority (NITA) to replace the Regional Transportation Authority (RTA) and oversee the Chicago Transit Authority, Metra and Pace. The governor promised that Illinois is on the verge of a world-class transportation network. “This new law not only averts the cliff but preserves affordability and makes transit safer and more reliable,” Pritzker said. The bill passed after more than two years of discussion centered around an estimated $770 million transit “fiscal cliff” looming in 2026, but the number was revised last summer to around $250 million.

As unscrupulous actors continue to impersonate government agencies and target unknowing people with texts about unpaid tolls, Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel this week reissued a consumer alert.With that in mind, this week's edition of the Talking Michigan Transportation podcast is a reprise of a conversation in June with J. Michael Skiba, also known as “Dr. Fraud,” a national expert on scams, like those proliferating in Michigan and other states, where text messages tell people they have unpaid road tolls. Skiba is department chair at Colorado State University Global, where he oversees the Criminal Justice Department, including specializations in fraud, financial crime and cybercrime. He discusses the psychology that prompts so many victims of online fraud to engage with scammers on smishing attempts. If you've been targeted, the FCC offers many tips. In April, the Michigan Department of Transportation released a video of Director Bradley C. Wieferich urging people not to respond to the texts.

The United States has bombed Iranian nuclear facilities—an extraordinary military action authorized by a President who campaigned against prolonged wars. In today's interview, national security expert Michael Allen, host of NatSec Matters, offers insight into the Israeli strikes, Iran's capacity to respond, and what Trump's decision means for the region and the world. Plus, we weigh the risks of a quagmire against the reactions from MAGA loyalists who only just learned how to pronounce “Fordow.” Trump's instincts are erratic, his rhetoric reckless—but the strikes appear largely effective, and now the world waits to see what comes next.
