Abstract:

The problem addressed in this research is to determine usage prices for a system with

multiple modes of transportation with the objective of reducing congestion. With multiple

modes, these prices can take on several forms. On road networks, the usage prices refer to the

tolls collected from motorists for access to certain streets and highways. On a transit system, the

usage prices are the fares the riders have to pay to travel on, for example, buses and subways.

The basic concept in this proposal is to employ the market force to allocate limited road and

transit capacities among travelers by their need to travel and their willingness to pay. The idea

involves charging congested routes higher prices. When willing to pay higher prices, travelers

can travel with reduced congestion during peak periods, using the modes, and along the routes of

their choosing.
