The mayor of London, Boris Johnson, has hinted at plans to reduce the price that drivers pay in the city depending on the time of day. However it could see the current price of £8 a day increasing during rush hour and a discounted rate at all other times. Mr Johnson is learning from a successful congestion chare implementation in Sweden. Despite previous rumours the zone area will not be extended. The new plan will bring with it different payment methods. It is proposed that motorists will carry electronic tags in their windscreens which hold payment cards.
