Description

Explore the complexities of urban transport policy with Urban Road Pricing: Public and Political Acceptability from Routledge Revivals. Originally published in 2003, this essential text examines the growing trend of cities implementing road pricing schemes. It provides a detailed comparison of the arguments used to support or oppose these transport policy instruments. The book investigates how different forms of road pricing are received by the public. By looking at both real-world schemes and hypothetical scenarios, it offers a deep look into the social acceptance of these policies. A key part of the analysis is the development of a sociological theory of acceptability. This helps readers understand why professional arguments often differ from what the general public finds acceptable. This book is an important resource for those studying the intersection of transport policy, sociology, and urban planning. It provides the context needed to understand the tension between technical policy design and public perception in modern cities.
