Abstract

Cet article propose une analyse du zonage à partir d'une modélisation explicite des économies d'agglomération. Au sein de chaque zone, les firmes et les ménages sont en concurrence pour occuper le sol. Le transport pour aller d'une zone à l'autre est soumis à de la congestion. L'interaction entre les économies d'agglomération et les coûts de congestion peut engendrer un équilibre de marché pour lequel les firmes sont trop concentrées en centre-ville ou bien trop dispersées. En cas de concentration trop faible, il est montré qu'un seul instrument fiscal peut rétablir l'efficacité. Au contraire, si la concentration est trop forte, il est possible d'utiliser une régulation quantitative simple. Toutefois, l'usage pratique de ces instruments demeure délicat du fait de la sensibilité de l'organisation urbaine optimale à certains paramètres difficiles à estimer. Le reste de l'analyse propose un certain nombre de variations autour du modèle initial.
