Mobility pricing: aspects of traffic engineering (VSS2005/916)
Overview
Objectives:
The research project shall develop support tools for decision makers in the field of Mobility Pricing, which focus on traffic engineering and safety impacts evoked by different systems. Thus, possible options can easily be compared with each other taking different boundary conditions into account.
Furthermore, the basic knowledge for the useful implementation of systems for Road Pricing is developed with special attention to traffic engineering aspects and the integration into comprehensive traffic management concepts.
The role of driver information and signalisation at toll collection facilities, for dynamic tolls (i. e. time or traffic dependant tolls) in particular, and possible changes of or amendments to the Swiss Signalisationsverordnung are part of the investigation. The state-of-the-art of Road Pricing systems and probable future developments can be considered in the project.
