Abstract:Public roads, streets, and sidewalks are managed by the City of Pittsburgh and those public space are used by all residents. The Department of Mobility and Infrastructure (DOMI) is responsible for issuing and enforcing permits for occupancy of the public right-of-way (ROW) in the City of Pittsburgh, such as for construction projects and utility line repair and installation. Presently, DOMI charges limited administrative fees for each right-of-way permit, regardless of the work’s impact on the social welfare. The objective of this project is to (1) analyze current the Right-of-Way permitting fee structure for city of Pittsburgh, and introduce a dynamic pricing strategy that more accurately captures the marginal impact of social costs incurred; and (2) develop a prototype web application for visualizing and analyzing ROW permits.
