This book was released on 2012 with total page 125 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "TRB's National Cooperative Highway Research Program (NCHRP) Report 722: Assessing Highway Tolling and Pricing Options and Impacts provides state departments of transportation (DOTs) and other transportation agencies with a decision-making framework and analytical tools that describe likely impacts on revenue generation and system performance resulting from instituting or modifying user-based fees or tolling on segments of their highway system. Volume 2: Travel Demand Forecasting Tools provides an in-depth examination of the various analytical tools for direct or adapted use that are available to help develop the forecasts of potential revenue, transportation demand, and congestion and system performance based on tolling or pricing changes. Volume 1: Decision-Making Framework includes information on a decision-making framework that may be applied to a variety of scenarios in order to understand the potential impacts of tolling and pricing on the performance of the transportation system, and on the potential to generate revenue to pay for system improvements"--Publication information.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This research examines a new methodology for prospectively estimating the willingness of travelers to use a toll road by combining travel time saved with the income of the prospective customer base. The purpose of the research is to facilitate network level planning by allowing some reasonable predictions of acceptable toll rates using readily available data and estimation techniques. Methods of estimating user benefit resulted in simulated distributions of value of user time. Values of time are linked to census tract income data for the user population to produce value of time as a percent of income as an indicator, which is hypothesized to be a more useful indicator of the travel market than conventional indicators. Techniques for estimating the travelshed of a toll road are examined. Results show that considering value of time as a percentage of census tract median income provides an improved portrayal of the toll road market, as usage of the toll road increases with increasing income. Using census tract median income as the income parameter has shortcomings, in that it produces anomalous results at very low population levels. Of the two methods of estimating the travelshed, the visual estimation approach was not satisfactory, leaving the analyst to use select link analyses instead.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The objective of this report is to determine whether electronic vehicle recognition systems (EVR) or automatic license plate recognition systems (ALPR) would be beneficial to the Arizona Department of Transportation (AzDOT). EVR uses radio frequency identification technology tags (RFID) that would be placed on all registered vehicles so that RFID readers could read vehicles' plate numbers as they pass using the radio frequency signal emitted by the RFID tag. ALPR technology uses cameras and alphanumerical recognition software to read license plates as they pass. The literature review looks into the previous applications of both ALPR and EVR. Departments of Transportation (DOTs), tolling authorities and law enforcement all have used various applications of this advanced electronic technology. Based on the literature review and the benefits section (Chapter 3), the potential benefits of an ALPR / EVR system are: 1. The ability for AzDOT to potentially monitor traffic flow more accurately, 2. The ability to better enforce license and registration compliance, 3. The ability to better enforce auto insurance compliance, 4. The ability to implement a toll, or congestion charge, 5. The ability to aid law enforcement in finding suspected criminals. Chapter 4 determines the potential costs of an ALPR or EVR system and then compares the costs with the total quantifiable benefits using two case studies. In the first case study, an ALPR system was set up on all major valley freeways, and in the second case study, an EVR system was set up on all major valley freeways. The ALPR case study concluded that such an ALPR system could be set up for about $10 million dollars and it could generate up to $400 million dollars in direct benefit per year and up to $1.3 trillion in benefits to highway users per year. The EVR case study concluded that such an EVR system could be set up for about $50 million, and it could generate up to $407 million in direct benefit per year and up to $1.33 trillion in benefits to highway users per year. A direct benefit profits the state directly with cash, while benefits to highway users helps society as a whole but the state receives no revenue. Chapter 5 looked into the legality of a potential ALPR or EVR system. This chapter concluded that AzDOT has the authority to implement an ALPR / EVR system in Arizona. However this section also concluded that AzDOT should seek legislative support to increase public support. This report concludes that at the present ALPR should be further researched and/or implemented by the State of Arizona. The reasons for this recommendation are because of: ALPR's previous applications, ALPR's lower up front cost, ALPR's ability to read out-of-state plates, ALPR's potential lower degree of public opposition, and the possibility that ALPR would have to back up an EVR system. All in all, these technologies are changing at a rapid rate and a change in any of these variables that generated this recommendation could change this recommendation.
