Thank you to our speakers & all who joined today’s Climate Week panel with Three Cairns Group on the success of congestion pricing.
Congestion relief is a reminder that change can take time, but with support from leaders across government, business, advocacy and more—it’s worth the wait.

✅Raised $48,000,000 for better transit
✅Slashed the number of vehicle crashes IN HALF
✅Boosted bus speeds, foot traffic, and business revenue within the congestion relief zone
IT. WORKS.
