Abstract

Zusammenfassung Hamburg erließ Durchfahrverbote für bestimmte Dieselfahrzeuge in stark belasteten Straßenabschnitten mit dem Ziel, die Schadstoffemissionen zu reduzieren. Der Erfolgsnachweis ist schwierig. Relativ kleine Änderungen bezüglich der analysierten Zeiträume, Kontrollgruppen und Kontrollvariablen können zu signifikant unterschiedlichen Ergebnissen führen. Diese Untersuchung ist ein Beispiel für die Schwierigkeit von Ex-post-Evaluierungen politischer Maßnahmen.
