Congestion Pricing Committee

Richard Baker, WSP, presiding
Murali Ramanujam, Santa Clara Valley Transportation Authority, presiding
Finance, Policy, Economics
The Committee fosters research aimed to gain a better understanding of the technological, operational, business, administrative, political and institutional aspects of innovative congestion pricing of systems and services for all modes of transportation. Strategies include integrated transit, variable aviation pricing, parking pricing, parking “cash-out”, and other mechanisms that seek to affect transportation demand and use. The Committee seeks to develop a comprehensive understanding of the effects of congestion pricing on the transportation system, in addressing passenger and freight mobility, transit and highway interdependence, and interoperability of systems.

Rami Harb, Atkins, presiding
Policy, Public Transportation
Congestion pricing is among the most effective mechanisms to manage demand for scarce infrastructure. It has been effective in addressing congestion on roadways in urban cores, providing reliable travel times on freeways, and is frequently used in mass transit systems to manage rider demand. Trends in new mobility, most notably growth in the shared economy and the emergence of Mobility-as-a-Service, could fundamentally change how drivers use and pay for public infrastructure. This session features new research with implications for how congestion pricing is implemented and its effectiveness within a new mobility landscape that is shared, integrated and multi-modal.
