The bottleneck model introduced by Vickrey in 1969 has been recognized as a benchmark
representation of the peak-period traffic congestion due to its ability to capture the essence …

The study of transportation involves researchers trained in many disciplines, including
engineering, economics, geography, planning, business, and regional science …

This timely new edition of Kenneth A. Small's seminal textbook Urban Transportation
Economics, co-authored with Erik T. Verhoef, has been fully updated, covering new areas …

This paper considers the modeling of road congestion subject to peak-load demand. The
standard model contains ambiguities and is poorly specified. These problems can be …

Abstract Drawing on Vickrey (Amer. Econ. Rev. 59, 251–261 (1969)) and subsequent
literature, this paper provides a thorough economic analysis of the simplest bottleneck …

In the present paper we are concerned with develo** more realistic dynamic models of
route choice and departure time decisions of transportation network users than have been …

Dynamic network models are needed to analyze traffic congestion patterns for new real-time
motorist information systems. In previous research, a dynamic network modeling framework …

In this chapter, we move on to investigate the road pricing problem with extended multi-class
equilibrium behaviors in the transportation networks introduced in Chapter 2. We begin our …

We extend existing models of the commuting time-of-day choice in order to analyze the
effect of uncertain travel times. Travel time includes a time-varying congestion component …

The purpose of this article is to question the presumption that route guidance and
information systems necessarily reduce traffic congestion, and to point out the need to …
