Credit-based congestion pricing: A Dallas-Fort Worth application

摘要: Abstract Under a credit-based congestion pricing policy, net revenues are distributed uniformly among qualifying travelers, to partially offset toll payments. This work predicts the traffic impacts, air-quality changes, welfare effects, and system implementation costs of such as applied Dallas-Fort Worth (DFW) region Texas. Joint destination-mode choice models were estimated applied. The status quo two marginal cost (MCP) scenarios simulated for short long terms, with full feedback trip times. Monetarized logsum differences suggest that congested freeways in this urban region, followed by travel credit distribution all workers, is improving great majority travelers. Moreover, high levels recurring ( V / C ratios exceeding 1.5) predicted practically disappear.
