Fosgerau, Mogens - EconWPA - 2004

The relationship between speed and income is established in a micro- economic model focusing on the trade-off between … travel time and the risk of receiving a penalty for exceeding the speed limit. This is used to determine when a rational … driver will choose to exceed the speed limit. The relationship between speed and income is found again in the empirical …

Vickrey Meets Alonso : Commute Scheduling and Congestion in a Monocentric City

Fosgerau, Mogens - 2017

This paper studies the interaction between dynamic traffic congestion and urban spatial equilibrium, using a model that is a straight unification of the Vickrey (1969) bottleneck congestion model and the Alonso (1964) monocentric city model. In a monocentric city with a bottleneck at the...

Using nonparametrics to specify a model to measure the value of travel time

Fosgerau, Mogens - Volkswirtschaftliche Fakultät, … - 2007

Using a range of nonparametric methods, the paper examines the specification of a model to evaluate the willingness-to-pay (WTP) for travel time changes from binomial choice data from a simple time-cost trading experiment. The analysis favours a model with random WTP as the only source of...

The value of travel time variance

Fosgerau, Mogens; Engelson, Leonid - Volkswirtschaftliche Fakultät, … - 2010

This paper considers the value of travel time variability under scheduling preferences that are de�fined in terms of linearly time-varying utility rates associated with being at the origin and at the destination. The main result is a simple expression for the value of travel time variability...

Trip-timing decisions with traffic incidents

Fosgerau, Mogens; Lindsey, Robin - In: Regional Science and Urban Economics 43 (2013) 5, pp. 764-782

This paper analyzes traffic bottleneck congestion when drivers randomly cause incidents that temporarily block the bottleneck. Drivers have general scheduling preferences for time spent at home and at work. They independently choose morning departure times from home to maximize expected utility...

Response Time Patterns in a Stated Choice Experiment

Börjesson, Maria; Fosgerau, Mogens - Volkswirtschaftliche Fakultät, … - 2015

This paper studies how response times vary between unlabeled binary choice occasions in a stated choice (SC) experiment, with alternatives differing with respect to in-vehicle travel time and travel cost. The pattern of response times is interpreted as an indicator of the cognitive processes...

Congestion in a city with a central bottleneck

Fosgerau, Mogens; de Palma, André - Volkswirtschaftliche Fakultät, … - 2012

We consider dynamic congestion in an urban setting where trip origins are spatially distributed. All travelers must pass through a downtown bottleneck in order to reach their destination in the CBD. Each traveler chooses departure time to maximize general concave scheduling utility. We find...

How a fast lane may replace a congestion toll

Fosgerau, Mogens - Volkswirtschaftliche Fakultät, … - 2011

This paper considers a congested bottleneck. A fast lane reserves a more than proportional share of capacity to a designated group of travelers. Travelers are otherwise identical and other travelers can use the reserved capacity when it would otherwise be idle. The paper shows that such a fast...
