London boroughs eye £750 workplace parking charge

Several London boroughs are considering introducing workplace parking levies (WPLs) of at least £750 a year to cut pollution and encourage active travel.

Any proposal from a borough would have to be approved by mayor Sadiq Khan and Transport for London, which has produced draft guidance on the issue ‘to facilitate the development of WPLs in London which are capable of being approved by the Mayor’.
