History
Before NSW Motorways there were multiple toll rebates available on New South Wales roads such as the $60 toll cap.[1]
It was created to introduce reforms called for by an inquiry into the motorway system conducted by Professor Allan Fels and Dr David Cousins.[2]
Functions
The agency is charged with:
- Establishing a Consumer Advocate[2]
- Regulating toll prices[2]
- Providing advice to the state government on issues affecting motorists.[2]
Additionally, the government will create an Independent Tolling Ombudsman as recommended by the report; this is expected to be operational by early 2026.[2][1]
The agency was established on 1 July 2025 and aims to be fully operational by the end of 2025.[1]
It will take charge of tolling on public roads such as the new M6 motorway, Sydney Harbour Bridge, Sydney Harbour Tunnel, and the upcoming Western Harbour Tunnel.[1]
