Congestion charges have been implemented in many global cities, including London, Milan, Singapore, and Stockholm.

Many more cities have started severely restricting access to vehicles, turning many downtown areas that had previously been roads into pedestrian malls. Indeed, NYC has done this to many roads (parts of Fulton Street, Delancey Street, and both Broadway and Times Square).

Do you have any evidence that those schemes have resulted in lower sale tax revenue for those locations?
