| Abstract | When and why drivers choose a tolled facility versus an untolled but congested parallel route is the subject of a 3-year project funded by the Federal Highway Administration's (FHWA) Exploratory Advanced Research (EAR) Program, in partnership with the University of Central Florida (UCF) and Georgia State University (GSU). The EAR Study, "Behavioral Sciences Approach to Testing, Validating, and Establishing Best Practices for Alternative Highway Revenue Collection: Experiments on Driving Under Uncertain Congestion Conditions and the Effects on Traffic Networks from Congestion Pricing Initiatives," examines how driver risk-preferences influence choices of route and travel departure times. |
