TfL proposes a below inflation rate rise in London's Congestion Charge
Briefly

The Congestion Charge in London will increase in 2024 from £15 to £18, the first rise since 2020, still below inflation-adjusted rates. Transport for London (TfL) intends to prevent future falls behind inflation with annual adjustments. Upcoming changes include new exemptions for electric vehicles, with a charge applying to private electric cars from January 2026, albeit with a 25% discount. TfL estimates that without these adjustments, congestion could worsen, incentivizing the need for a revised Cleaner Vehicle Discount to maintain incentives for less polluting vehicles.
The Congestion Charge will rise from £15 to £18 next year, a necessary adjustment after no increases since 2020 to keep pace with inflation.
Current exemptions for electric vehicles will undergo revision, as all electric vehicles would be liable for the charge if targets are not adjusted.
