Time, speeds, flows and densities in static models of road traffic congestion and congestion pricing

Verhoef, Erik T. - 1997

This paper studies some of the properties and fundamentals of static models of road traffic congestion that have triggered much debate in the literature. The first part of the paper focuses in particular on the difficulties arising with the backward-bending cost curve in the context of...

Bottleneck congestion : differentiating the coarse charge

Knockaert, Jasper; Rouwendal, Jan; Verhoef, Erik T. - 2010

The traditional bottleneck model for road congestion promotes the implementation of a triangular, fully time varying … traditional bottleneck model to analyse how the coarse charge can be differentiated over two groups of travellers assuming …

Do highway widenings reduce congestion?

Ossokina, Ioulia V.; Ommeren, Jos van; Mourik, Henk van - 2022

Highway construction occurs nowadays mainly through widening of existing roads rather than building new roads. This paper documents that highway widenings considerably reduce congestion in the short run, defined here as 6 years. Using longitudinal microdata from highway detector loops in the...

Speed choice, car following theory and congestion tolling

Rouwendal, Jan - 2002 - This version: September 25, 2002

This paper provides a link between car following theory and the economic theoryof road congestion by means of a theory … of speed choice. According to this theory speedchoice is based on a trade-off between the benefits (shorter travel time … elaborating this relationship a number of car-following models can be derived fromthis theory of speed choice.

Congestion pricing, slot sales and slot trading in aviation

Verhoef, Erik T. - 2008 - This version: 18/03/08

This paper studies the regulation of an airline duopoly on a congested airport. Regulation should then address two market failures: uninternalized congestion, and overpricing due to market power. We find that first-best charges are differentiated over airlines if asymmetric, and completely drive...

Optimal congestion pricing with diverging long-run and short-run scheduling preferences

Verhoef, Erik T. - 2017 - This version: 18/08/17

Recent empirical work has suggested that there is an important distinction between short-run versus long-run scheduling behaviour of commuters, reflected in differences in values of time and schedule delays, as well as in preferred arrival moments, for the short-run versus the long-run problem....
