Description: "Road pricing is undoubtedly recognised as an effective traffic demand management tool. The recent London Congestion Charging Scheme shows that public and political opposition are not insurmountable. The book contains twelve papers useful for students, researchers, civil servants, policy makers and consultants. The book updates the latest research and the empirical evidence on the subject. It is also the first comprehensive study of road pricing to appear after the London Congestion Charging Scheme was implemented that contains an assessment of its preliminary impacts."--Jacket.
