Value Pricing Pilot Program Projects Involving Tolls: Systemwide Pricing

This project category encompasses pricing at several locations throughout a metropolitan region, state, or country. Charges may apply only on limited-access facilities, or on both limited-access and lower class facilities. Systemwide pricing programs are operating on a citywide basis is in Singapore and Santiago de Chile. In both cities, charges are adjusted based on speed of traffic. Germany has implemented nationwide tolling for trucks on its limited-access highways, but tolls do not vary based on traffic levels. Revenue-neutral credit-based systems have been conceptualized to address equity and fairness issues that arise with proposals to impose new systemwide charges, e.g., a "FAST miles" approach being studied in Minnesota.

Listed below each project category are projects that are currently being studied or have been completed. Each category includes a more detailed description of projects, an update of its current quarterly status, and a contact name for those seeking additional information about the project.
