PositiveImpact Implementation of congestion pricing could create significant assets for future generations by reducing air pollution, improving public health, and enhancing the quality of life through reduced congestion. The resultant improvement in the reliability of public transport initiatives funded by the pricing could position Switzerland as a leader in sustainable urban mobility, attracting investments and innovation in transport technologies.

NegativeImpact However, congestion pricing could disproportionately impact lower-income individuals who rely on their vehicles for commuting, exacerbating social inequity. There's a risk of reduced access to essential services for these populations if alternative transport options are inadequate. Additionally, if revenue generated from congestion pricing is not invested efficiently into public transport, it may not meet its potential to alleviate congestion effectively.
