This article reviews and compares the results of four modelling case studies of urban road pricing implementation that were carried out for the MC-ICAM project. The studies all concern large cities in Western Europe (Paris, Brussels, Oslo and Helsinki) and they all examine phased implementation...

Early studies of peak-period traffic congestion generally ignored the departure time decision of road users. Vickrey (1969) and Kocur (1981) remedied this oversight by deriving the departure rate along a single route subject to queuing congestion as the outcome of individual utility...

Most theoretical studies of traffic congestion during the morning commute have been limited to one origin, one destination, and one route. This paper is the first to analyze systematically user equilibrium, system optimum, and various pricing régimes for a simple network of routes in parallel....

Information about traffic conditions is conveyed to drivers by radio and variable message signs, and more recently available via the Internet and Advanced Traveler Information Systems (ATIS). This has spurred research on how travelers respond to information, how much they are likely to benefit...
