Reducing Congestion - how would you do it?
Discussion
Say you wanted to reduce congestion, I mean really reduce it, not find another way to keep the tax coming in. What would you do?
More lanes on motorways? Ban lorries at peak times? Tax people off the roads? Driverless cars? Etc.
If I was in charge of the world, id be looking at why there is so much car use in the first place and start the order to build new stuff around what people want. So mixing business hubs with new build property, incentivising office based companies with tax relief by enabling/enforcing working from home to reduce long commutes. Investing in better rail links, not the hs2 nonsense. Maybe even build more premium council flats in popular cities that can only ever be rented - and are only available to city workers who don't commute.
And maybe ban lorries at peak times.
What would you do to make the roads less busy and the air cleaner?
