Möglichkeiten der Internalisierung externer Staukosten Buchkatalog

Masterarbeit aus dem Jahr 2014 im Fachbereich VWL - Verkehrsökonomie, Note: 1, 4, Technische Universität Dresden (Professur für Verkehrsökonometrie und -statistik), Veranstaltung: Transport Economics - Congestion Costs, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: The congestion costs in Germany are dramatically high due to increasing traffic volume and congestion lengths. These costs are mainly induced to market failure, especially externalities: Car drivers don't take the mutual impediment in consideration. In conclusion, every car driver causes the congestion while also suffering from it simultaneously. This phenomenon makes it difficult to find the right solutions in order to internalize the external costs. However, by following the Pigovian Tax strategy (congestion pricing) and by using additional advanced technologies the congestion costs can be reduced or even avoided effectively.
