- Clear Up the Congestion-Pricing Gridlock
  Posted by Jeff from New York Times
  This is a good article by London's Mayor on the benefits of congestion pricing: In 2003, London put in place a £5 (about $9) a day congestion charge for all cars that entered the center city (the charge is now £8). This led to an immediate drop of 70,000 cars a day in the affected zone. Traffic congestion fell by almost 20 percent. Emissions of the greenhouse gas carbon dioxide were cut by more than 15 percent.

  Could congestion pricing finally make it to the U.S.? This would be a huge step towards getting the price of driving to reflect its true cost.
