This book delves into the realm of congestion pricing in the Chinese context, shedding light on its potential for public acceptance and its successful implementation in Western cities like London. Despite facing initial resistance from vested interests, congestion pricing has proven to be a powerful tool in revitalizing city centers, improving air quality, and promoting sustainable transportation. However, given the distinct cultural and political landscape of China, the author raises the crucial question of whether public acceptability should be a primary concern and explores how it might manifest in an authoritarian context.

To address this issue, the book employs a multi-faceted approach, encompassing stakeholder interviews, focus groups, and an attitudinal survey. Through these methods, the author gathers valuable insights and perspectives, providing a comprehensive understanding of the factors influencing public perception and acceptance of congestion pricing in China.

The book is of immense interest to policymakers, planners, and scholars of transport governance, offering valuable insights and practical strategies for implementing congestion pricing in China. By examining the experiences of other countries and adapting them to the unique context of China, the book aims to foster sustainable transportation practices and promote a more efficient and livable urban environment.

In conclusion, this book serves as a valuable resource for anyone seeking to understand the complexities of congestion pricing and its potential for shaping the future of transportation in China. By exploring the interplay between public acceptability, cultural factors, and political systems, the author provides a comprehensive framework for policymakers and practitioners to navigate the challenges and opportunities of implementing congestion pricing in this rapidly evolving country.
