Highlights This paper explores differentiated congestion pricing. The scheme charges users of different travel characteristics different amounts of toll. As the scheme requires tracking vehicles, it may cause privacy concerns. An incentive program is designed to entice travelers to voluntarily participate.

    Abstract This paper explores a new type of congestion pricing that differentiates users with respect to their travel characteristics or attributes, and charges them different amounts of toll accordingly. The scheme can reduce the financial burden of travelers or lead to more substantial reduction of congestion. Given that the scheme requires tracking vehicles, an incentive program is designed to mitigate travelers’ privacy concerns and entice them to voluntarily disclose their location information.
