NSW budget 2026 LIVE updates: Car, motorcycle registration slashed, public transport fares frozen as Treasurer Daniel Mookhey hands down state budget

NSW Treasurer Daniel Mookhey is delivering his budget speech and has promised that this is a budget driven by “our people’s concerns”.

First on the agenda: motorists and commuters.

The treasurer has vowed to cap tolls at $50 a week, slash the cost of vehicle registration by $100 for every private car and $80 for motorcycles for the next 12 months.

Commuters will reap the benefits of this budget as well.

“For the 4.2 million people catching a train, a bus, or a ferry each month, we’re freezing your fares. For the next 12 months, you will not pay a cent more for public transport than you do for today, not on trains, not on buses, not on ferries,” said Mookhey.
