Auckland council will meet on Thursday to discuss the introduction of congestion charges for some of Auckland's busiest roads.
The so-called 'Time of Use Charge' would charge people using specific roads during peak-time travel. Mayor Wayne Brown has told media that it would cost about the same as a cup of coffee - around $5.
He says it will take another two to three years for the charge to be introduced.
Tracey Berkahn is council's group manager of Services and Performance.
Berkahn spoke to Corin Dann.
