Too Much Water 17 Oct 7:31am, 17 Oct 2020 7708 posts	0 Too Much Water There is talk of the London congestion charge being extended to match the ULEZ zone (which from next year is the area inside the North and South Circular). This may prompt greater demand for Electric Cars for the next few years as they will get an exemption from the congestion charge until the end of 2025.

Too Much Water 17 Oct 7:43pm, 17 Oct 2020 7709 posts	0 Too Much Water Oh, didn't know it had been ruled out
rf_fozzy 17 Oct 8:03pm, 17 Oct 2020 11882 posts	0 rf_fozzy Don't think it's been "officially" ruled out, but I know that TfL and London Mayor's office have both said it's a nonstarter, which suggests it's unlikely to happen.
rf_fozzy 17 Oct 8:05pm, 17 Oct 2020 11883 posts	0 rf_fozzy Here's the FT article about it: ft.com (google "Sadiq Khan resists congestion zone extension to secure TfL rescue" if you get the paywall screen and that should bring a readable version of the article).

Too Much Water 17 Oct 9:36pm, 17 Oct 2020 7712 posts	0 Too Much Water So it hasn't been ruled out then!
