On the southern part of the Parisian Maréchaux' boulevards, the old bus line Petite Ceinture has been replaced by a modern tramway (T3). Simultaneously, the road-space has been narrowed by about a third. A survey conducted on 1,000 users of the T3 shows that the tramway hardly generated any...

Freight and logistics play a central role in economy but raise numerous environmental issues. The academic literature and policy orientations have been mainly focusing on transport and neglecting warehousing, although a holistic view is needed. Indeed, firms shipment size decisions, the...

Preferences for transport activities are often considered only in terms of time and money. Whilst congestion in automobile traffic increases costs by raising trip durations, the same is less obvious in public transport (PT), especially rail-based. This has lead many economic analyses to conclude...

This research focus on the congestion cost of the Parisian ring-road. We mobilize a speed-density relation which enables us to differentiate the costs of the road's use and its congestion according to speed-classes of 5 km/h. We lead this work at three analytical scales thanks to a large...

Sur le quart des boulevards des Maréchaux, le bus a été remplacé par un tramway et simultanément les voies routières ont été rétrécies. Une enquête auprès de 1000 usagers montre que le tramway n'a engendré presque aucun transfert modal de la voiture vers les TC. Mais il a engendré...

Cet article se propose d'étudier le coût économique engendré par la congestion du boulevard périphérique parisien (BPP). Nous mobilisons un modèle basé sur une relation vitesse-densité, ce qui nous permet de différencier les coûts d'utilisation de la route et de congestion du BPP...
