| Research Abstract |
This study has solved how the traffic congestion makes influence on surrounding land asset value by estimating the multiple regression equation which predicts a land value by the form, the use, the floor area, the design of circumference buildings, and air pollution.
Furthermore, measuring the benefit and the cost of positive and negative externality which buildings brings by money term, about the group regulation by the Building Standard Law, we have shown that it is possible to change from "specifications regulation" controlled by a substitute index, and to "performance regulation" controlled by the volume of influence, and that it is efficient.
This study also examined the environmental improvement effect and the compact city formation effect through the promotion of residence and business building location in the city center introducing the road pricing which charges inflow vehicles to the central city by developing a land use forecasting model for Tokyo Metropolitan Area(1 capital and 3 prefectures).
If the road pricing is introduced, which divides inner aria of the 8th Ring Road into about 20 zones, and which imposes 200 yen uniformly to the car passing through a zone boundary in the direction of the center or the annular direction, the CO2 emission reduces 0. 45%, the NOX emission reduces 0. 38% and SPM emission reduces 0. 45%. The environmental improvement progresses as a whole.
In 23 wards, the working population increases 12. 0% and the nighttime population increases 12. 0%. In circumference 4 prefectures, the working population decreases about 7 to 9% and the nighttime population decreases 4 to 5%. It leads to compact city formation.
