PositiveImpact The Dynamic Toll Pricing Model can lead to an increase in local employment in related sectors, such as technology, traffic management, and compliance, as enhanced monitoring systems will require skilled professionals. It might also encourage the use of public transport and carpooling, leading to job growth in those areas as well, especially in the context of reduced congestion during peak hours. Additionally, as congestion decreases, there are likely indirect benefits to job creation due to improved access to the job market for workers who rely on the A1 motorway.

NegativeImpact The potential for inequity exists as dynamic toll pricing might disproportionately affect lower-income individuals who cannot afford higher tolls during peak times, leading to increased social stratification. The focus on variable toll rates may disincentivize certain workers from using the corridor altogether, potentially leading to job losses in sectors dependent on lower-income commuters. Furthermore, any disruptions during the initial rollout could lead to temporary job instability.
