The effects of road pricing on driver behavior and air pollution

Author:
Matthew Gibson  Maria Carnovale  


Journal:
Journal of Urban Economics


Issue Date:
2015


Abstract(summary):

Abstract Exploiting the natural experiment created by an unanticipated court injunction, we evaluate driver responses to road pricing. We find evidence of intertemporal substitution toward unpriced times and spatial substitution toward unpriced roads. The effect on traffic volume varies with public transit availability. Net of these responses, Milan’s pricing policy reduces air pollution substantially, generating large welfare gains. In addition, we use long-run policy changes to estimate price elasticities.
