Abstract

This chapter considers transference of the London Congestion Charging Scheme (LCCS) to U.S. cities. Its primary objectives are to: (1) identify and apply a framework analysis for policy transfer; (3) argue that a successful transfer should involve transference of key aspects of the overall planning process (and not just the scheme) to help overcome the implementation barriers in the UK-US context; and (3) examine the key travel characteristics likely to affect the outcome of congestion charging in the U.S. Section 2 discusses the general frameworks deemed useful for the purpose of this chapter, while Section 3 overviews the implementation process of the London scheme. Section 4 compares the key travel characteristics in the UK and the U.S. which are likely to influence the effectiveness of congestion charging and Section 5 concludes.
