Research Abstract |
The purpose of this study is to derive basic findings concerning optimization of road network capacity through vehicle miles traveled (VMT) charge and optimization of road space allocation caused along with optimization of road network capacity.I revealed the optimal amount charged and the policy issues for the former using the simulation analysis, and marginal willingness to pay for bicycle space and pedestrian space as representative road use space for the latter using the conjoint analysis.
