Los Angeles Considering Charging Drivers To Use The Freeway
Los Angeles Is Reportedly Considering Charging Drivers To Use The Freeway
Some freeways across LA County seem to be full of traffic no matter what time of day you are traveling.
Now the LA Metro Transportation Authority is exploring new ways of alleviating that by charging drivers.
The idea is called “Congestion Pricing.” It uses priced tolls to control speed and the flow of cars in an effort to help with less traffic and cleaner air.

The company has identified three locations where they could potentially implement the new idea.
One of them is a 16-mile stretch on the 10 Freeway between downtown LA and Santa Monica. Another is in the San Fernando Valley and the LA Basin.
The prices of living in Los Angeles already high and the additional coast for drivers may not sit well with consumers.
