Default The effects of a road congestion tax

The effects of a congestion tax may not be what NuLabour want to hear.

public transport infrastructure, Ministers have been warned. With rural bus
services already under threat, and overcrowding endemic on urban train
lines, public transport would be stretched to breaking point."
