PositiveImpact
The Dynamic Toll Pricing Model is expected to lead to a significant reduction in congestion, resulting in lower vehicle emissions as traffic flows more smoothly. Such reductions can enhance air quality and public health while promoting a cultural shift towards more sustainable transport methods among the worker class. This model may encourage the adoption of eco-friendly commuting options, ultimately fostering a more sustainable transport ecosystem for future generations.
NegativeImpact
While the Dynamic Toll Pricing Model may reduce congestion, it could inadvertently lead to increased financial burdens on lower-income workers who cannot alter their commuting schedules. If not managed carefully, this could exacerbate social inequalities and potentially drive a portion of the worker class to use more polluting vehicles if they cannot afford the tolls. Additionally, there could be a risk of local businesses facing decreased accessibility due to fewer drivers if congestion pricing leads to consumer avoidance of the area during peak hours.
