DO you think a congestion charge should be introduced in St Helier?
Assistant Environment Minister Hilary Jeune, who holds political responsibility for climate change and energy, recently refused to rule out the introduction of such a charge – although this would not come into force during the first phase of the Carbon Neutral Roadmap.
She said the prospect of a congestion charge was a policy the government ‘could potentially look into in future’ and that it could ‘be part of a revenue-raising, longer-term financing strategy’.
In 2018, then-Environment Minister John Young called for the introduction of a congestion charge for motorists in St Helier during peak times to cut vehicle emissions.
