In this paper we study how congestion and residential movingbehaviour are interrelated using a two-region job search …. This choice affects the external costs ofcommuting due to congestion. The welfare maximizing road tax is derived ….We demonstrate that road pricing may not only reduce congestion but alsoincrease total residential moving costs in the economy. One …

The recent literature on congestion pricing with large agents contains a remarkable inconsistency: though agents are … large enough to recognize self-imposed congestion and exert market power over prices, they do not take into account the … impact of their own actions on the magnitude of congestion tolls. When large agents are confronted with tolls derived under …

We estimate welfare losses of policies that provide on-street parking permits to residents almost free of charge in shopping districts. Our empirical results indicate that parking supply is far from perfectly price elastic, implying that there are substantial welfare losses related to...
