Abstract This paper draws upon a wide range of international experiences to assess the role that road pricing may play as a means of urban traffic restraint. It considers why restraint policies have not been more widely adopted in the face of mounting urban transport problems and identifies the major difficulties in implementation. A number of restraint policies are available and these are compared, using a range of criteria, as potential tools of transport policy. The conclusion which emerges is that, although the general case for restraint is more complex than many simplistic analyses have suggested, where there is a case for its introduction, road pricing, in a fairly simple form, offers the most effective approach. Finally, consideration is given to the future research needs into restraint measures.
