Abstract
What was the effect of the London congestion charge on traffic accidents injuries and fatalities? Research by Colin Green finds that the introduction of the London congestion charge reduced the count of traffic accidents in Central London by 30 a month – an enormous 40 per cent reduction. Accidents that result in individuals being killed or seriously injured (KSIs) also fell, by just under 4 a month, or 45 a year.
