Abstract

The efficiency losses of multiclass stochastic user equilibrium traffic assignment under road pricing against system optimization (SO) was investigated. The upper bounds of efficiency losses were analytically derived by variational inequality method. It is shown that whether using the time-based or monetary-based measures for decision making, the upper bound against SO always depends on the class of link travel time functions, the users' socio-economic characteristics, the road pricing scheme, the network complexity, the total traffic demand and the degree of perception error.
