Abstract

The Norwegian cordon pricing schemes represent rare examples of urban-wide road user charging. In Trondheim, the toll ring established in 1991 was developed into a unique zonal system in 1998. This second-generation road pricing scheme divides the city into six zones, and traffic crossing the boundaries is charged. In this article, the processes of developing the two generations of road pricing in Trondheim are described. The public and political acceptance of the two generations of road pricing systems is investigated, and the main arguments for and against the scheme, as manifest in public debate, are assessed. (A)
