Sydney Mayor Clover Moore is not against introducing a toll for petrol and diesel drivers to enter Australia’s busiest CBD amid debate from political leaders over whether to adopt a London-style low-emissions zone.

Moore said there were several initiatives underway that the local council, which encompasses the Sydney CBD area, was implementing to lower emissions, including building more charging stations for EVs.
