Inside the Government’s transport plans and what they mean for you

National has unveiled their plan for transport over the next term and it includes some new fees coming your way. 

Getting a Motor Vehicle Registration is about to become a lot more expensive, while promises not to raise fuel taxes are being kept – but only just.
