Calls for “radical overhaul” of London congestion charge
A YouGov poll has found that a ‘radical overhaul of congestion charging’ is needed to keep London moving in the future.
The report, commissioned by non-profit organisation London First, shows that Londoners think congestion will only get worse – though just 29% support a price increase during the busiest periods.
The report, based on a poll of 1,055 people, calls for ‘smart charging’ which would mean drivers pay different amounts depending on what time of day they use the road.
London First says any enhanced scheme should ensure:
The congestion charge recently increased from £10 per day to £11.50 (or £10.50 using AutoPay) and drivers of diesel vehicles face extra charges under a new Ultra Low Emission Zone (ULEZ).
Each day, London’s roads see around 10 million car journeys, four million bus journeys, 500,000 cycle trips and 300,000 taxi journeys. London First chief executive, Baroness Jo Valentine said:
“This is bad news for London’s competitiveness and for Londoners’ overall quality of life. We need a far cleverer congestion charging regime where costs vary more based on those roads and times of day where congestion is worst.”
