- Description
- The implementation of dynamic toll pricing presents multiple challenges that could mitigate its effectiveness and even create additional burdens for future generations. First, the financial burden of variable tolls on lower-income drivers could create widening social inequities. Second, the potential shift of traffic to alternative routes might lead to increased congestion and pollution in previously unaffected areas. Third, if the toll revenue is not reinvested in sustainable infrastructure or public transport, the long-term benefits could be significantly diminished. In comparison to other alternatives, such as public transportation enhancements or smart traffic management systems, this approach could fail to deliver a net positive impact on the environment and public welfare.
