| Hello Michael, A toll on bridges in London would perhaps not be a bad idea. I would support it if the funds were to be used towards maintaining the bridges. Using the tolls to subsidise public transport? Hmm, it reminds me of the charge on petrol brought in by Ken Livingstone in the 80s to subsidise public transport. I think we should concentrate on the root of the problems and not the consequences. For example: - density of population in London as well as in neighbouring counties; - high cost and overcrowding in public transport; - need to have offices in London as well as working from home a few days a week; - among others. |
