Advancing Congestion Pricing in the Metropolitan Transportation Planning Process: Four Case Studies
September 2010, Report

For the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA), Cambridge Systematics built upon ongoing planning integration work for the FHWA and the National Cooperative Highway Research Program to consider as well as anticipate how emerging directions in road pricing can be best evaluated, developed, and communicated. Cambridge Systematics supported the current and foreseeable regional planning goals of an excellent transportation system, vibrant economy, healthy environment, and sustainable energy policy. The work involved four case studies, plus a synthesis of what these studies might say about integrating congestion pricing in the metropolitan planning process.
