PositiveImpact The introduction of dynamic toll pricing could lead to a significant reduction in traffic congestion, thereby decreasing CO2 emissions. By incentivizing off-peak travel, it promotes smarter travel habits, which may become a cultural norm. Furthermore, the generated revenue from tolls could be reinvested into public transport initiatives and sustainable infrastructure, creating long-term assets for future generations.

NegativeImpact Dynamic toll pricing may disproportionately affect lower-income commuters who are unable to adjust their travel times or afford the varied tolls. There is also a risk that drivers might resort to alternative routes to avoid tolls, leading to increased traffic and pollution in those areas. If not managed well, this solution could promote a more inequitable transport system, ultimately exacerbating the issues it aims to alleviate.
