This paper explores the inerrelations between pricing, capacity choice and financing in transportation networks. It builds on the famous Mohring-Harwitz result on self-financing of optimally designed roads under optimal congestion pricing, and specifically asks the following questions: (1) to...

This paper presents a method to assess the distribution of values of time, and values of statistical life, over participants to a stated choice experiment, that does not require the researcher to make an a priori assumption on the type of distribution, as is required for example for mixed logit...

In this paper, we investigate congestion caused by differences in desired or possible speeds. Especially outside peak hours, speed differences are probably one of the most important reasons for congestion. Although the model setting, with one lane and no overtaking, may seem simple at first...

This paper presents a new method to assess the distribution of values of time, and values of statistical life, over participants to a stated choice experiment. The method does not require the researcher to make an a priori assumption on the type of distribution, as is required for example for...

The authors study interaction on a two-lane road between the trips of two types of drivers who differ by their desired speeds. The difference in desired speeds causes congestion, because slow vehicles force fast vehicles to reduce their speed. Results for this type of congestion with respect to...

We study interaction between the trips of two types of drivers on a two-lane road who differ by their desired speeds. The difference in desired speeds causes congestion, because slow drivers force fast drivers to reduce their speed. An interesting aspect of this type of congestion is that...

This paper considers second-best pricing as it arises through incomplete coverage of full networks. The main principles are first reviewed by considering the classic two-route problem and some extensions that have been studied more recently. In most of these studies the competing routes are...

Conventional economic models of traffic congestion assume that therelation between road use and speed is a technical one. In this paper wederive the speed-flow relationship from more fundamental considerationsconcerning driving behaviour. We develop a structural model in which driverschoose...
