Almost certainly will.
As a business in South Cambridge we got the consultation 'results' back and they were overwhelmingly negative, but then the same happened for the guided bus and that still got the go ahead.
Absolutely crazy that people will have to pay a congestion charge to visit/attened/work at Addenbrookes hospital!

Very good effort by those involved with putting leaflets opposing the congestion tax on car windscreens during the Ipswich game.

The crazy thing is, the GCP admit that they will need MORE cars travelling into Cambridge and paying the charge (than now), in order to raise the revenue to pay for raft of proposals including better and more frequent buses. If that ain’t a floored plan I don’t know what is !!!

www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-cambridgeshire-64496836This is pretty damming, based on lack of impact on traffic and revenue generated in the city of Gothenburg, lthey have 4x the population and achieve 70m euro revenue against a GCP target of 50m. Sent from my SM-S901B using proboards

If the council can approve solar panels on Kings College roof despite numerous objections, they’ll certainly approve the congestion tax. Green box-ticking.

I left work at 4.45 on the Addenbrookes site and at 5.30 have just reached the Catholic Church on a bus. I can walk it in that time- only the rain that stopped me. I’m now likely to miss my connecting bus to Cambourne so a total time of 2 hours
I do not usually use the bus for work but this is why I and no doubt many others don’t.

I got caught within an hour of arriving in Palma de Mallorca late last year. The letter demanding payment arrived direct from the Vatican City, so these schemes are clearly God's will. I have never paid a fine so quickly!
