Mathematical and Computational Models for Congestion Charging

by Siriphong Lawphongpanich (Editor), Donald W. Hearn (Editor), Michael J. Smith (Editor)

Overview

Rigorous treatments of issues related to congestion pricing are described in this book. It examines recent advances in areas such as mathematical and computational models for predicting traffic congestion, determining when, where, and how much to levy tolls, and analyzing the impact on transportation systems. The book follows recent schemes judged to be successful in London, Singapore, Norway, as well as a number of projects in the United States.
