[sustran] Re: FW: TfL Press release - Congestion Charge Scheme (CCS) - summary of week five

[Kirk Bendall]

Hello,
I think London has taken the key step. Transferability to cities outside Europe will vary. In Australian cities I don't think the CBD congestion  is near London levels, and transit capacity is constrained.
Political acceptqnce will probably take some time to achieve - probably not until similiar geographic and population size cities have done so successfully.
regards,

Here is some news about London's Congestion Charge Scheme (CCS) so far.
How do you all feel about the relevance of London's (and Singapore's
etc) experience with congestion charging/road pricing for middle-income
cities elsewhere?
