This paper studies the second-best problem where not all links of acongested transportation network can be tolled. The second-best taxrule for this problem is derived for general static networks, so thatthe solution presented is valid for any graph of the network, and forany set of tolling...

We explore the properties of various types of public and private pricing on acongested road network with heterogeneous users and allowing for elasticdemand. Heterogeneity is represented by a continuum of values of time. Thenetwork consists of both serial and parallel links, which allows us to...

In this paper we study how congestion and residential movingbehaviour are interrelated using a two-region job search …. This choice affects the external costs ofcommuting due to congestion. The welfare maximizing road tax is derived ….We demonstrate that road pricing may not only reduce congestion but alsoincrease total residential moving costs in the economy. One …
