Introduction
Tolling must be evaluated as an option compared with the case of no tolls.
A number of other options aimed at optimisation of the transport system should also be assessed, including:
- revenue maximisation tolls
- level of tolls and other measures maximising social welfare
- level of tolls and other measures maximising traffic diversion from sensitive areas
- level of tolls and other measures to optimise level of service.
When considering private sector financing options, only options that reduce public sector costs should remain in the final set of options.
