GB News: Ulez labelled ‘trial’ run for pay-per-mile taxes with Rachel Reeves urged to rollout scheme nationwide
The UK government is considering a pay-per-mile scheme, inspired by London's Ulez, to address declining fuel duty revenue as electric vehicle usage rises. Proposed rates range from 1p to 4p per mile, potentially benefiting infrequent drivers but raising concerns about fairness and costs for commuters.
The scheme could lead to reduced road congestion but may disproportionately affect families and rural residents. Critics warn of unintended consequences, particularly regarding peak travel costs and the treatment of motorcycles under the new system.
