PositiveImpact If implemented effectively, dynamic toll pricing could lead to a more equitable distribution of traffic, allowing smoother travel for those who need it most, such as workers commuting to jobs. It could potentially generate revenue that could be reinvested into sustainable transport initiatives. Over time, reduced congestion could lessen vehicle emissions, thus contributing positively to air quality and climate resilience, benefiting future generations.

NegativeImpact Dynamic toll pricing may disproportionately affect lower-income drivers who cannot afford to adjust their travel times or reduce their trips, potentially exacerbating social inequalities. Furthermore, this strategy may encourage some drivers to take alternative, potentially less environmentally friendly routes that stay outside of the toll areas, leading to greater emissions overall. The implementation process could also divert attention and resources away from more comprehensive solutions that could address root causes of congestion.
