Closed session: Equity and Acceptance of Congestion Charging Schemes

Many European cities have introduced Urban Vehicle Access Regulations (UVARs) to tackle air pollution, limit traffic congestion, improve road safety, and redistribute public space. This session focuses on congestion charging (implementation of a fee for drivers to enter certain areas with their vehicles). While it has been found to be an effective tool to meet local mobility and air quality goals, there remain crucial questions, especially in terms of equity and citizens' acceptance. Presenters: Seleta Reynolds – Chief Innovation Officer, Los Angeles Metro. Yoann Le Petit – Thought Leadership Manager, EIT Urban Mobility Participation: Carl Friedrich Eckhardt, Ian Catlow, Roberta Righini, Delia Mitcan, Leading cities and stakeholders of EIT Urban Mobility community.
