The Value of "Value Princing" of Roads: Second-Best Pricing and Product Differentiation Author info | Abstract | Publisher info | Download info | Related research | Statistics Small, K.A.
Yan, J.
Additional information is available for the following
registered author(s):
Some road-pricing demonstrations use an approach called "value-pricing", in which travelers can choose between a free but congested roadway. Recent research has uncovered a potentially serious problem for such demonstrations: in certain models, second-best tolls are far lower than those typically charged, and the welfare gains from profit maximization are small or even negative.
