We are all a part of the congestion problem!

There has been a lot of buzz around ‘congestion pricing.’ This is a policy being implemented which charges vehicles entering highly congestion areas such as downtown cores during certain times of the day. The most famous case is that in Britain. I found this article quite interesting because it gives a very local perspective on the topic. Many people believe that since they live in the city, they are not a part of the congestion problem but this is not the case. This article paints a very real picture of the daily challenges of the congestion problem.
