DESCRIPTION:The Central London congestion charging scheme is the only such
  policy that has actually been implemented in the UK. This talk explains s
 ome reasons why it was politically successful and why other schemes in Lon
 don and elsewhere have failed to achieve public acceptance. It will outlin
 e the modelling tools used to forecast the impacts of the policy prior to 
 implementation and the changes in travel patterns that have resulted from 
 this policy – some of which are surprising. In conclusion some more gene
 ral views on the potential for applications of road pricing will be presen
 ted.
