Having worked in the transport industry, including work on road pricing I have a few points.
1) A 10% reduction in traffic will reduce congestion by MORE than 10%
2) Improvements in public transport are always (to date) undertaken prior to the implementation of any scheme
3) You can not build you way out of congestion. Even with road growth greater than population growth history has shown that congestion continues to increase.
