Automobile Externalities and Policies (2007, background): “Following the successful cordon toll introduced in central London in 2003, the national U.K. government is considering replacing its fuel taxes with a system of per-mile charges that would vary sharply with region and time of day (Jonathan Leape 2006, Santos 2004, Ch. 11).”
Keep Your Clunker in the Suburb: Low Emission Zones and Adoption of Green Vehicles (2014, background): “This LEZ is different from London’s Congestion Charging Zone of eight pounds per day which operates on workdays during daytime only in London’s Centre (Leape, 2006; TFL, 2008).”
National and Sub-national Policies and Institutions (2014, background): “Overall congestion was also estimated to have been reduced 17 by 30%, and emissions fell (Leape, 2006).”
Political and Public Acceptability of Congestion Pricing: Ideology and Self Interest (2010, neutral): “In 2003, the City of London adopted Singapore's Area Licensing Scheme (see Leape, 2006, for a review).”
The dynamics of urban traffic congestion and the price of parking (2013, background): “For London, an annual net efficiency gain of 100 million Euro has been estimated and this figure does account for system costs (Leape, 2006).”
A survey of urban climate change experiments in 100 cities (2013, background): “…2009) including examples of experiments such as the congestion charge in London or the experimentation with new ideas about the provision of transport in the city or the use of alternative fuels in other European cities (see e.g. Bertaud et al., 2009; Leape, 2006; Prud'homme and Bocarejo, 2005).”
Behavioural science and policy: where are we now and where are we going? (2018, background): “Policy interventions may try to reduce carbon emissions by getting people to drive less (Leape, 2006) or to reduce calorie consumption using food labels (Roberto et al.”
Reducing Urban Road Transportation Externalities: Road Pricing in Theory and in Practice (2011, neutral): “An early analysis of the LCC found that just over half of the deterred car trips shifted to public transport, around a quarter diverted around the charging zone, 10 percent shifted to taxis, and 10 percent were either rescheduled outside charging hours or canceled (Leape 2006).”
The effects of license plate-based driving restrictions on air quality: Theory and empirical evidence (2017, background): “5 In addition to license plate-based driving restrictions, another type of driving restriction are low emission zones, which define areas that vehicles may enter only if they are classified as low emission vehicles (Wolff and Perry, 2010); and another form of driving regulation are congestion charge”
