Written evidence submitted by Mr Joseph Bulloch (EVP0024)

As someone who uses a bicycle, a car, a motorcycle and public transport I full support the introduction of road pricing in the UK.

Road pricing, if done correctly could encourage people to use active or green methods of travel in our towns and cities.  The fairest way to do this would be to charge a high rate for road use in areas where it is possible to walk or cycle or where public transport exists. Conversely, those roads on which you wouldn’t walk or cycle, such as motorways, would entail the lowest charge.
