In classical traffic flow theory, there are two velocities associated with a given level of traffic flow. Following …-state hypercongested equilibrium can be stable. For a particular structural model of downtown traffic flow and parking, this paper … demonstrates that a steady-state hypercongested equilibrium can be stable. Some other sensible models of traffic congestion …

In downtown areas, what proportion of curbside should be allocated to parking? In contrast to most previous work on the economics of parking, this paper focuses on optimal curbside parking capacity in both first-best (where pricing is efficient) and second-best (where pricing is inefficient)...

The traditional bottleneck model for road congestion promotes the implementation of a triangular, fully time varying, charge as the optimal solution for the road congestion externality. However, cognitive and technological barriers put a practical limit to the degree of differentiation real...

We study road supply by competing firms between a single origin and destination. In previous studies, firms simultaneously set their tolls and capacities while taking the actions of the others as given in a Nash fashion. Then, under some widely used technical assumptions, firms set a...
