Description

An agreeable price: Discovering the path to critical road pricing reform. This project aims to investigate the timely and critical pathway for transitioning to a fair, equitable and parsimonious road user charging system for passenger cars. This project expects to generate knowledge in the area of road pricing using innovative experimental methods and field trials incorporating new technologies. Expected outcomes of this project include an enhanced understanding of responses to different pricing structures and sources of resistance in road pricing reform. This should provide significant benefits, such as a validated road pricing structure that is acceptable to drivers and policy-makers, and future-proof funding for road infrastructure that is essential to perform economic, commercial and social activities.. Scheme: Discovery Projects. Field: 3509 - Transportation, Logistics and Supply Chains. Lead: Prof Michiel Bliemer
