Will congestion pricing work in Bangalore? Not sure if the flair is correct. It has been a month since congestion pricing was introduced in NYC. What is congestion pricing? "In the context of city roads, the congestion charge may be defined as a charge imposed on users of specific, over-crowded roads, to ease congestion and vehicular emissions during peak traffic hours by reducing demand and usage.
