Abstract:
Transportation planning is usually aiming to solve two problems: the traffic assignment and the toll pricing problems. The latter one utilizes information from the first one, in order to find the optimal set of tolls that is the set of tolls that leads to a user equilibrium solution and that would benefit all travelers-users. This problem is particularly hard, so an evolutionary algorithm is proposed based on the work by Buriol et al. (2005) and Ericsson et al. (2002). Computational results are given to depict the success of our approach.
Congestion pricing works by shifting some rush hour highway travel to other transportation modes or off-peak periods and by encouraging solo drivers t...
