Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The objective of this research project was to conduct research on the merits, costs and application potential of various transportation pricing approaches, to better inform decision makers and the public about transportation financing/pricing option in California. The research emphasis will be on processes and techniques by which pricing can be made acceptable to public officials and lay citizens in California. Through rigorous analysis and the development of accessible resource materials, this work will support better public policymaking in California related to transportation finance, congestion management, and transportation pricing. The concept of "congestion pricing" has been the subject of lively intellectual debates in the field of transportation since 1920. Economic theory suggests that variable tolls can influence travel decisions so that roads are more efficiently utilized. While economists have vigorously promoted congestion tolls for years, wary politicians and interest groups, including automobile clubs and trucking associations, have usually coolly received congestion-pricing proposals. The situation has changed rapidly during the past decade, however, and roadway pricing is now seen by an increasing number of stakeholders as an important dimension of future transportation policy. There are several reasons for the recent shift in attitudes, including changes in circumstances facing transportation decision makers and fundamental changes in the nature of pricing proposals themselves.

This book was released on 2005 with total page 92 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Projections of future passenger and freight travel suggest that increased levels of investment may be needed to maintain the current levels of mobility provided by the nation's highway and transit systems. However, calls for greater investment in transportation come amid growing concerns about fiscal imbalances at all levels of the government. As a result, careful decisions will need to be made to ensure that transportation investments maximize the benefits of each federal dollar invested. In this report GAO identifies (1) the categories of benefits and costs that can be attributed to new highway and transit investments and the challenges in measuring them; (2) how state, local, and regional decision makers consider the benefits and costs of new highway and transit investments when comparing alternatives; (3) the extent to which investments meet their projected outcomes; and (4) options to improve the information available to decision makers. To address these objectives, we convened an expert panel, surveyed state departments of transportation and transit agencies, and conducted site visits to five metropolitan areas that had both a capacity-adding highway project and transit project completed within the last 10 years. DOT generally agreed with the report's findings and offered technical comments, which were incorporated as appropriate.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With all levels of governments currently, and for the foreseeable future, under significant fiscal stress, any new transit funding mechanism is to be welcomed. Value capture (VC) is one such mechanism, which involves the identification and capture of a public infrastructure-led increase in property value. This book reviews four major VC mechanisms: joint development projects; special assessment districts; impact fees; and tax increment financing; all of which are used to fund transit in the United States. Through the study of prominent examples of these VC mechanisms from across the US, this book evaluates their performance focusing on aspects such as equity, revenue-generating potential, stakeholder support, and the legal and policy environment. It also conducts a comparative assessment of VC mechanisms to help policy makers and practitioners to choose one, or a combination of VC mechanisms. Although the book focuses on the US, the use of the VC mechanisms and the urgent need for additional revenue to fund public transportation are world-wide concerns. Therefore, an overview of the VC mechanisms in use internationally is also provided.
