So basically, (a) there are a hell of a lot more roadworks than before and (b) road space is being reallocated away from cars and to buses, bikes, and people. Thus, less traffic causes the same amount of congestion. The ABD's complaint goes like this: "This latest report on the London congestion charge demonstrates the fundamental dishonesty of all road pricing proposals," said the ABD's Nigel Humphries. "They claim that by paying even more money to use the roads, drivers will benefit from lower congestion." Which is cobblers. Nobody's ever claimed that the London congestion charge was for the benefit of car drivers. I dunno, surely it goes without saying that, all else being equal, there's less congestion with the charge than there would be without it? |
