'They need to give people better options': What people in Wales think about charging drivers for using the busiest city roads

Councillors in Cardiff are set to debate a planned congestion charge for the city this week.

The debate could add pressure on the council’s cabinet to scrap any plans underway to bring in a charge of £2 a day to use the city’s roads. You can read more about that here. London currently has a congestion charge, which applies to most vehicles entering central London.

The charge applies between 7am and 6pm Monday to Friday and 12pm to 6pm on Saturdays, Sundays and bank holidays, except between Christmas Day and the New Year's Day bank holiday. The congestion charge in London costs £15 if you pay in advance or on the same day. A slightly higher rate of £17.50 is charged if you pay up to three days after you travel.
