The Third Way ideology, which emerged prominently in the 1990s under leaders like Bill Clinton in the United States and Tony Blair in the United Kingdom, advocates for a middle ground between traditional liberal and conservative approaches, emphasizing market-based solutions to social and economic issues while also supporting government intervention to address market failures and promote social justice. Congestion pricing can be seen as a market-based solution to the problem of traffic congestion, a classic example of a negative externality where individual car use imposes costs on others in the form of increased traffic and pollution. By charging drivers a fee to enter the most congested areas during peak times, congestion pricing uses market principles to encourage more efficient use of roads, potentially reducing traffic and promoting alternative forms of transportation. This approach aligns with the Third Way's preference for innovative solutions that harness market mechanisms to achieve public policy goals.

While the Third Way ideology supports market-based solutions, it also emphasizes the importance of government intervention to protect the interests of the less advantaged and to ensure equitable access to public goods. Critics of congestion pricing argue that it can disproportionately affect lower-income drivers who may not have viable transportation alternatives, essentially making central areas of cities more accessible to the wealthy. This concern could lead Third Way proponents to view congestion pricing with some skepticism, as it may conflict with the ideology's commitment to social equity. However, if congestion pricing schemes are designed with mechanisms to mitigate these impacts, such as by using revenue to fund public transportation improvements, Third Way supporters might view them more favorably. Thus, the negative score reflects a cautious approach to congestion pricing, recognizing potential equity concerns but not outright rejecting the policy.
