    Induced Travel Demand Estimation Revisited

    Suppose a government adds two lanes to a highway in both directions, but then restricts access to those lanes. The lanes will be “managed” — open only to people in carpools, or to people in single-occupancy vehicles who pay a toll. The toll will vary in response to demand, with the goal of avoiding congestion and keeping vehicles moving. Will the total amount of driving in the region rise, fall, or not change?

    Guardrails on Priced Lanes: Protecting Equity While Promoting Efficiency

Second, we consider ways to mitigate these burdens.  Read the original publication.

    How and Why Would Congestion Pricing Work?

    Transportation scholars regularly argue that congestion pricing is the only reliable way to reduce road traffic congestion. The public often resists this advice, often out of confusion about how pricing would work, concern about whether it would be fair, and a belief that some other, less politically-explosive approach might work just as well. This explanatory essay addresses some of those common concerns. Read the original publication.

    Roads, Prices and Shortages: A Gasoline Parable

    Can pricing roads really help reduce congestion? One way to answer this question is to ask if not pricing roads causes congestion. This essay by Michael Manville makes that case, and does so by demonstrating the general principle that when goods are underpriced, shortages result, and congestion is essentially a shortage of road space. People react and adjust in many ways to shortages, but accurate pricing is the only reliable way to end a shortage caused by mispricing. Read the original publication.
