  1. The Manhattan congestion article briefly recognises trip elimination (vs modal shift) but doesn’t explore the economic impact (or indeed socio-cultural impact) to the city of the people no longer choosing to come to/through the congestion zone.

    The impact is hard to measure unless the cameras were switched on for a few months prior to charging commencing to provide a traffic survey to segregate (as far as is possible) how many vehicles travelled into the zone (local impacts) vs through the zone (regional impact).
