Bangkok Plans Congestion Charge to Ease Traffic and Pollution

Bangkok’s Transport Ministry is considering a congestion charge to reduce traffic and pollution, inspired by models from cities like London. Transport Minister Suriya Juangroongruangkit announced a six-month study by the Office of Transport and Traffic Policy and Planning (OTP) to determine the best approach. Funds from the charge could enhance transit infrastructure and allow for a 20-baht flat fare for electric trains. With 60% of residents supporting the idea, the OTP is consulting with the British government to improve Bangkok’s traffic and transit systems.
