Abstract

In recent years road-pricing has been implemented in a number of Europeancities including Rome, London, Oslo, and Stockholm. Copenhagen could be on the verge of introducing road-pricing and two projects have been carriedout recently in order to screen and benchmark the performance of different types of road pricing systems in the Copenhagen region. The first project, referred to as the KK project, provides a first screening of twelve different road pricing systems. The twelve projects ranged from highly advanced GPS systems covering most of the city area to small cordon based systems mainly focusing on the central parts of the city. The second project, the IMV project, provides an in-depth analysis of four projects that passed through the initial screening phase. The main contribution of the paper will be to outline a paradigmatic approach for how to - in an economically consistent way - evaluate and benchmark different road pricing systems. For the covering abstract see ITRD E135582.
