This paper analyzes the effects of price differentiation and discrimination by a monopolistic transport operator, which sets fares in a congestible network. Using three models, with different spatial structures, we describe the operator's optimal strategies in an unregulated market, a market...

Welfare effects of road pricing and traffic information under alternative ownership regimes
Gubins, Sergejs; Verhoef, Erik T.; Graaff, Thomas de - 2010
This paper models strategic interactions between a product supplier, a provider of information about product quality, and end users, in the context of road transportation. Using a game-theoretical analysis of suppliers' pricing strategies, we assess the social welfare effects of traffic...

A state-dependent toll equals the state-dependent marginal external cost … even more unpopular with the populace than stateindependent tolling. We study this using dynamic bottleneck congestion with … an uncertain capacity that can have two states: high or low. We consider two congestion pricing regimes: responsive state …
