Congestion Charging 'Inevitable' In Scotland
Edinburgh may be the first Scottish city to try congestion pricing, but others will surely follow.
"Andrew Burns, Edinburgh City Council transport convener, told the first day of a public inquiry into congestion charging in the city that it was inevitable. Traffic growth was a serious threat to quality of life and failure to deal with it had been called an absolute abdication of responsibility, Mr Burns said."
