Firms urge mayor to rethink congestion charge plan
Briefly

More than 40 businesses are urging the London mayor to extend the congestion charge exemption for electric vans, as its removal would greatly impact their operations.
Signatories to the letter argue that transitioning to cleaner vehicles is essential, and ending the exemption would impose significant costs on businesses that have already invested heavily.
The charge increase from £0 to £15 a day would undermine businesses that have taken on debt to contribute to cleaner air, prompting serious concerns.
Campaign leaders emphasize that charging electric and diesel vehicles alike contradicts sustainable practices, urging the mayor to support the transition to greener transport solutions.
