These measures may include charging urban congestion fees, restricting car purchases by people with non-local household registration, and requiring people to have a parking space before they can buy a car.

　　Beijing's plan to tackle traffic congestion has been approved in principle by the State Council, which may include charging city congestion fees, restricting non-local residents from buying cars, and requiring people to have a parking space before they can buy a car.

　　Today, the Beijing Daily published the speech of Liu Qi, secretary of the Beijing Municipal Party Committee, at the 8th Plenary Session of the 10th Beijing Municipal Party Committee, saying that the State Council has agreed in principle to Beijing's plan to control traffic congestion. Beijing will revise and improve the plan as soon as possible in accordance with the requirements of the State Council, and then promptly solicit opinions, introduce it smoothly, and implement it seriously so that the control measures will take effect as soon as possible.

　　According to previous reports by Xinhua News Agency's media, the latest governance plan formed by the Beijing Municipal Transportation Commission not only continues existing strategies such as strengthening rail transit construction, public transportation priority, and odd-even number restrictions, but also adds new tough measures such as collecting urban congestion fees, restricting car purchases by people with non-local household registration, and "getting a parking space first, then being allowed to buy a car."
