Episode 441: Paying by the Mile

The Overhead Wire
About this episode

This week we're joined by Mike Warren, Senior Vice President at WSP. Mike chats with us about road user charging including how the discussion has changed over the last decade and the idea of treating roads as a utility by paying for driving by the mile. We also discuss policy considerations including reducing driving and congestion, privacy considerations, and replacing existing use taxes.
