Transport for London is proposing changes to the central London Congestion Charging Scheme.
These include a change in the charge level from £15 to £18, a new discount for electric vehicles and a change to the Residents' Discount for new applicants.
The Congestion Charging scheme was introduced in February 2003. Since its introduction the primary objective of the scheme has been to manage traffic and congestion in central London by imposing a charge during the busiest times of day.
If introduced, the proposals would begin to come into effect from January 2026.
