CONTROVERSIAL
congestion
char
ge
plans
for
Cambridge
ar
e
going
8220back
to
the
drawing
boar
d8221.
Cambridgeshir
eC
ounty
Council
made
the
shock
announcement
on
Monday
citing
lack
of
support
fr
om
the
public
and
businesses.
It
had
planned
to
char
ge
motorists,
including
city
re
sidents,
between
1633
and
1635
for
driving
in
the
city
between
7.30am
and
9.30am
Monday
to
Friday
.
The
council
is
not
abandoning
the
idea
of
char
ging
and
has
said
it
is
still
hoping
to
secur
e163
500
million
for
transport
impr
ovements
fr
om
the
Government
8217s
Tr
ansport
Innovation
Fund
(TIF)
which
is
dependent
on
ar
oad
toll.
But
Councillor
Jill
Tu
ck,
the
new
leader
of
the
county
council,
said
the
scheme
needs
8220at
least
re
finement8221
and
announced
the
setting
up
of
an
ew
commission
which
will
investigate
the
issue
and
come
up
with
as
trategy
.
However
the
unelected
gr
oup
has
been
dubbed
8220not
fit
for
purpose8221
by
the
city
council
leader
because
it
favours
big
business
at
the
expense
of
the
40
per
cent
of
city
households
who
do
not
have
ac
ar
.
Cllr
Ian
Nimmo-Smith,
council
leader
,
said:
8220While
re
lieved
the
county
Con-
servatives
have
decided
to
continue
developing
pr
oposals
with
av
iew
to
securing
TIF
funding,
I8217m
very
disapp-
ointed
it8217s
taken
ay
ear
to
re
ach
this
point.
8220Mor
eover
the
commission
that
is
pr
opose
di
sn
ot
fit
for
the
purpo
se.
Ther
e
has
been
no
consult
ation
whatsoe
ver
as
to
this
commissi
on.
8220It
is
unacceptable
to
pr
opose
to
hand
over
the
development
of
Cambridge8217s
transport
strategy
to
ab
ody
that
is
too
much
weighted
towar
ds
business,
Stagecoach
and
major
landowners.
8220The
pr
oposed
composition
of
the
commission
omits
cr
ucial
stakeholders.
8220For
instance
it
needs
to
re
flect
better
the
needs
of
cyclists
and
bus
users
in
a
city
wher
e4
0p
er
cent
of
households
do
not
own
cars
and
28
per
cent
of
journeys
to
work
ar
em
ade
on
bike.8221
The
re
think
has
been
widely
welcomed
by
char
ge
opponents
including
councillors
and
business
leaders.
Councillor
David
Jenkins,
leader
of
the
opposition
Liberal
Democrat
gr
oup
on
the
county
council,
said
he
was
pleased
the
authority
was
continuing
to
pursue
the
TIF
but
his
party
was
also
concerned
by
the
cr
eation
of
an
unelected
commission.
But
the
change
of
dir
ection
was
welcomed
by
many
who
have
been
critical
of
the
scheme
fr
om
the
start.
Cllr
Paul
Sales,
leader
of
the
council8217s
Labour
gr
oup,
said:
8220I
think
that
is
eminently
sensible.
8220It
is
exactly
what
they
should
have
done
in
the
first
place.
8220The
most
important
thing
is
at
the
end
they
give
us
some
options
to
vote
on.
8220Pr
eviously
it
was
take
it
or
leave
it
8211
starting
again
is
the
best
thing
to
do.8221
