Road pricing
01
a fee charged for using roads to manage traffic flow and reduce congestion
Example
Some cities have implemented road pricing to encourage public transportation use and reduce air pollution.
Road pricing aims to decrease traffic jams during rush hours by making drivers consider alternative routes or times.
Governments often study the impact of road pricing before implementing it to ensure it benefits both commuters and the environment.
Critics argue that road pricing may disproportionately affect lower-income drivers who rely on personal vehicles.
The effectiveness of road pricing varies depending on how well it integrates with existing transportation systems.
