PositiveImpact Implementing the Dynamic Toll Pricing Model could lead to a significant decrease in traffic congestion on the A1 motorway, creating a more efficient transportation network for future generations. This model may promote a cultural shift towards alternative travel behaviors, thereby fostering sustainable transport practices and contributing to cleaner air and reduced greenhouse gas emissions. The revenues generated from tolls could also be reinvested into public transport and road maintenance, providing long-term benefits to society.

NegativeImpact Over-reliance on a toll-based system may create financial burdens on lower-income workers who rely on the A1 for commuting. If toll prices increase significantly during peak hours, it could effectively limit access to essential transport for these workers, exacerbating social inequalities. Additionally, if technological deployments fail to keep up with demand or malfunction, it could lead to a public backlash against the system, undermining its effectiveness and acceptance over time.
