The “why” goes right back to key goals
• Economic growth• International competitiveness
• Housing• New homes & accessibility
• Environment• Climate change
• Local environment, including safety, noise, air quality

How we live, work and travel
• We are a largely urban population• half of us live in just 31 out of 1950 settlements
• only 10% live in “rural” areas
• But we’re less likely to move house for work• portfolio careers
• over 30% of households are now “dual earner”
• others in households get settled too – e.g. children at school
• So we move house less, and accept longer commutes

Taking advantage of “nearby” opportunities …
Distance between centres of urban areas

Most of these trips cannot easily be made “door to door” by public transport

So, why road pricing ?
• Because it is the most credible long term option• Our other levers only get us so far
• Reflected in the public debate• Now about details – what ? how ? when ?• Rather than the principle

What is road pricing ?
• A smarter way of paying for using the roads
• With prices that reflect how busy the road is

But to get there requires
• Payment rules• Either driver is responsible for declaring journey
• Or system issues bills
• Or a bit of both
• Technology• Either all outside the car
• Or some inside
• Back office• Money
• Compliance

And, crucially, public support
• It still faces very demanding public tests• Is it a stealth tax ? • Is Government going to spy on me ?• Will the scheme work / cost too much to run ?• Is there a convenient alternative transport ?• Will it be fair ? “Rich can afford”; “I have to drive” • Will I understand my bills ?

• But at same time lay the foundation for wider roll out

Tackle congestion problems here today …
• In a few pathfinder areas
• With road pricing technology used elsewhere• Say microwave technology
• As part of package of investment from the TIF• So there are public transport and park and ride options

… while laying foundation for wider roll out
• Offering optional alternative technology in pathfinders• For example, based on satellite positioning
• With mobile telephony reporting that position
• Piggy-backing off other commercially provided systems• For example, existing pay-as-you-go insurance
• Or mobile phones themselves
• So that• We encourage solutions from a growing industry
• We don’t need to see the raw data ourselves – privacy is protected
• We don’t need to put up gantries all over the country

Designing the system:The driver who uses several schemes should..
Need only one piece of equipment in car
• Approval arrangements to ensure interoperability
Not be confused with other users
• Standardised arrangements for identifying vehicles and infrastructure.
Receive one bill
• Back offices able to exchange information (security etc)
Be clear about the consequences of failing to pay
• Consistent enforcement arrangements

Designing the system:work with grain of commercial development
• We don’t want, or need, to do everything ourselves
• Looking to “piggyback” on existing and emerging services
• Good for cost & risk• Good for privacy
