Abstract

Congestion pricing of high-demand roadways seeks to influence travelers’ route choices, trip timing, modes, and destination choices, to keep vehicles moving and avoid excessive congestion. This paper describes the use of various technologies to enable more advanced and cost-effective congestion pricing applications, and a credit-based policy to ensure equitable network access for all travelers.
