London congestion charge could rise to £18 a day under new proposals

  • Transport for London announced a proposal to increase the daily congestion charge from £15 to £18 starting January 2026.
  • The increase follows the last rise in 2020 and aims to reduce traffic congestion while encouraging cleaner vehicle use in central London.
  • The proposal includes a new cleaner vehicle discount offering 50% off for electric vans and 25% off for electric cars registered on Auto Pay.
  • TfL estimates that without this update, about 2,200 more vehicles would enter the congestion zone daily, and drivers of older cars could pay up to £30.50 combining charges.
  • The consultation runs until August 4, 2025, and the changes aim to balance managing congestion with supporting greener travel options across London.
