THE AKTA ROAD PRICING EXPERIMENT IN COPENHAGEN

Abstract

AKTA is the Danish part of the PROGRESS project, which is a part of the major European Union 5th Framework Program. The paper presents the design and some initial findings from the AKTA road pricing experiment in Copenhagen. The main experiment involved 2x200 car drivers being exposed to different road pricing schemes using a GPS based technique by which all trips are charged and logged. The participants were paid the difference between their expected road pricing, if they did not change behavior. Presented is prior work as well as some results of AKTA. Conclusions are made on traffic impacts of the different pricing schemes, road users attitudes before and after road pricing is implemented, and the accuracy of different survey and modelling techniques.
