City Centre: Car
A new traffic control system will speed up traffic and avoid jams, providing better information and improved traffic management.
The TIF package aims to tackle congestion at the times, places and direction that it does greatest harm to the Greater Manchester economy.
Fewer than 20% of Greater Manchester’s peak-time drivers will pay a charge. The average charge paid will be less than £3 per week day at 2007 prices.
The congestion charge is designed to tackle congestion at the time, place and direction where it is at its worst. The system is based on two charging rings, picking up vehicles heading towards Manchester in the weekday morning peak period and outward, away from Manchester, in the evening peak period.
How the charge works
Income will go to support the TIF package of transport improvements.
The charge will reduce congestion on our roads at the busiest times.
