Congestion Tolling and Urban Spatial Structure
研究了拥堵收费对城市空间结构的影响,指出在瓶颈模型下,最优拥堵收费若不重新分配收费收入,则不会改变城市空间结构。
According to the standard model of urban traffic congestion and urbanspatial structure, congestion tolling results in a more concentrated city. In recent years, a new model of rush‐hour urban auto congestion has been developed that incorporates trip‐timing decisions—the bottleneck model. In the simplest bottleneck model optimal congestion tolling without toll‐revenue redistribution has no effect on trip price because the efficiency gainsexactly equal the toll revenue collected. Optimal congestion tolling then has no effect on urban spatial structure. This paper formalizes and extends this result.
