Congestion charging set to come to Perth
Discussion
I've just read that congestion charging is set to come to Perth. Now Australia have signed the Kyoto agreement, it's one way they wish to reduce pollution and car usage.
As a person that uses my car to commute from the suburbs to the city every day, I'm pretty pissed at this.
The train is very good here, on time and frequent but it's packed and the train station car parks are full to capacity as well. I'd rather sit in my air conditioned car than pack myself into a train where there is no hope of a seat.
If 10% of the city commuters changed from cars to public transport, the trains just couldn't cope.
