More motorways will increase traffic congestion in Wellington

scoop.co.nz: "The Opus report shows that National’s multi-billion dollar motorway-building programme will increase congestion in Wellington by subsidising long-distance commuting by car and funnelling more traffic into chokepoints on the Urban Motorway. The motorways will reduce patronage of the existing public transport infrastructure and see more people driving. Daily petrol use will increase, costing the country millions of dollars in additional oil imports."
