Do you also believe that all the revenue from the proposed congestion charge would have gone into the transport improvement scheme? I don't.

if money raised by congestion fees was put into public transport there would be people traveling for free on the busses because of the amount of money raised by the fees

of course the money was spent elsewhere , probably bailing out the olympic bid
