Congestion Tax,
So the Council/ Commission are about to land us all with another charge / tax for motor vehicles. The object of this is to reduce vehicle numbers on the roads at peak times and to encourage the use of public transport .Why is there congestion???? most of the major routes in and out of the city are a myriad of cones. Public transport in this city is inadequate, in that can they be relied on to take me where I want to go without having to walk the distance to my destination? That's a hard 'NO' .Perhaps those who thought up this less than brilliant idea need to rethink the disadvantages that this will bring to many.
