Description

Economic growth and globalization drive traffic increases, which leads to significant congestion, higher travel costs, and longer travel times. This rise in traffic also contributes to environmental challenges, including increased CO2 emissions, air pollution, noise, and accidents. Managing traffic is a complex task because transportation is a necessity that cannot simply be restricted without incurring heavy costs. This book examines road pricing as a specific instrument to address these issues. By having motorists pay for driving on specific roads, authorities may be able to reduce negative impacts more efficiently. Despite technological advancements and efforts from the EU, road pricing remains underutilized. This text explores the economic and environmental implications of these policies within the field of spatial science, providing a deep look at how managing road usage can balance the need for mobility with the need for environmental protection.
