NSW drivers could soon see the cost of tearing up toll road contracts

The cost of tearing up Transurban’s existing toll road contracts in NSW could be released publicly by the end of the year as the newly elected Labor government charges ahead with a revamp of the state’s tolling systems.

The new government has hired former Australian Competition and Consumer Commission chairman Allan Fels and economist David Cousins to oversee a review of the state’s tolling systems, which had already been initiated by the previous Coalition government.
