Online TDM Encyclopedia - Price Evaluation |
 | | Pricing reforms are best implemented as part of a comprehensive package of TDM strategies, including improved Travel Options (such as improved Walkability and Transit), plus Information and Marketing to inform users about price changes and alternative modes. |
 | | Pricing may be considered to reduce transportation options for low-income travelers who cannot afford an additional vehicle fee, but the vast majority of motorists either have travel alternatives (changes in travel timing, destination or mode), or can afford to pay an additional fee, at least sometimes. |
