Opposition to road pricing, when coming from the broad political left is largely directed at perceptions of fairness.
Note that most libertarians in general however favour transferral of roads into private ownership, which is likely to result in tolls for individual roads, set on a profit-maximising rather than an economic welfare-maximising basis.
It should also be noted that the current government did not originally float the idea of road user pricing for all UK vehicles; the previous Conservative government were also studying the idea in the 1980s, though principally considering tolling to pay for the construction of motorways rather than to control congestion.

Road Pricing means that motorists pay directly for driving on a particular roadway or in a particular area.
Road pricing impacts vary depending on various factors, including the type of pricing, how it is structured, and the transportation and geographic conditions in which it is implemented.
Road Pricing is usually implemented by public or private highway agencies or local authorities as part of transportation project funding packages or transportation demand management programs.

 Travel Value Pricing --
Pricing of some infrastructure to allow relatively congestion-free travel through the thick of rush hour traffic provides new opportunities for meeting the demands of life.
People prefer a "free," un-tolled road to a toll road, but an existing road is never truly "paid for." After opening day, it begins to deteriorate from exposure to the sun, rain, freeze-thaw cycle, and the weight of vehicles.
One should be concerned with the possibility of electronic tracking of vehicles for road pricing and toll collection becoming an invasion of privacy and a curtailment of liberty, especially with universal metering.
