Eight Progress Party MPs have introduced a proposal to terminate current urban growth agreements and scrap the zero-growth target for car traffic in cities. The proposers argue that the zero-growth target restricts people's freedom to choose cars, makes daily life harder for families with children and businesses, and is incompatible with projected population growth. They propose replacing urban growth agreements with a new state-funded investment programme for urban transport in which all modes of transport are treated equally.
