Stop all times congestion charges on weekends

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

Full Stop of congestion charges on weekends, no charges at anytime
From 1900 hrs on Fridays to 0700 hrs on Monday.
Because the average person us being bled dry by the rising cost of living, minimal wage increases and very little help from the government. This is an unnecessary cost for motorists who are already struggling to pay the rising petrol prices. The Congestion charge during the working week will never be repealed, but removing it from the weekends and evenings be a help. Enough is enough.

Why it was rejected

It asked for something that is not the responsibility of the UK Government or Parliament.

This is a matter for the local authority that you are part of, rather than the UK Government. You might be able to start a petition calling on the Government to prevent local authorities imposing congestion charges between certain hours.
