Question 6
Proposal 20 of the Mayor’s Transport Strategy states that the Mayor, through TfL, will keep
existing and planned road user charging schemes, including the Congestion Charge, the ULEZ and the Silvertown Tunnel schemes, under review to ensure they prove effective in further or delivery the policies and proposals of the strategy.
Although TfL has outlined how it could be possible to replace existing charges with a single, simple and fair road user charging scheme in the future, the technology required for this is still some years away, and the Mayor has been clear that there are no proposals on the table for such a scheme.
Question 7
The GLA does not hold this information.
Question 8
The daily charge for the upcoming expansion of the ULEZ across all London boroughs is the same as the charge for the existing ULEZ. There were numerous consultations on the

payment levels.
