Govt reduces cost of fuel by 25 cents: reax from Gaspy

From First Up, 5:43 am on 15 March 2022

And we return to our lead story now that the cost of fuel was reduced by 25 cents a litre overnight as the government acts to counter soaring petrol prices arising from Russia's invasion of Ukraine. The price of public transport will also be halved for the next three months in a bid to help people save on their transport costs. We sent our producer Matthew Theunissen around to a few Auckland petrol stations after yesterday's announcement to find out how the news is being receieved by motorists. Nathan Rarere spoke with Larry Green from the fuel finding app Gaspy, which tells you where to go for the lowest prices in your area. He asked what the average cost of petrol is at the moment.
