Dynamic Congestion Pricing Model Based on Stackelberg Games

摘要

Different from the previous research, this paper presents a dynamic congestion pricing model based on the Stackelberg game between the government and the travel individuals. Firstly, we build a travel cost function for various travel modes from the time cost view. Different from the original literature, ride comfort of various travel modes and dynamic charge rate of government are introduced into the bottleneck model. For the government and travel individuals, Nash equilibrium is employed to describe internality and externality of traffic system respectively. Finally, numerical examples are provided to explain the relationship of these variables.
