The purpose of the work has been to study residential and employment location effects of a road pricing scheme in the Oslo and Akershus area. The road price is represented by an increase in the rush hour toll fee at existing toll ring in Oslo. We do not question the purpose of the road price itself, which is to introduce marginal cost pricing in the road system and to internalize external costs, but aim solely at the study of location effects caused by increasing costs in the transport system, and consequently increased commuting costs, in the Greater Oslo area. The question we try to answer is how a road price, ad thereby increased commuting costs, will influence households' decision of where to supply labor and where to locate.
