Abstract:Traffic congestion threatens to destroy Southern California's economic vitality, strangling growth and curtailing economic opportunities for lower and middle-income people. Direct pricing, with higher prices during peak hours, would bring demand into balance with supply, would shift non-work trips away from rush hours, and would also generate revenues to increase roadway capacity. This paper discusses private tollways for resolving gridlock in Southern California in the following sections: (1) Traffic congestion and Southern California; (2) Why road use should be priced directly; (3) Toll-road practice today; (4) Electronic road pricing; (5) Private tollways for Southern California; and (6) Taking the next steps. 28p.
