POLITICAL ACCEPTANCE OF ROAD PRICING: GOAL CONFLICTS IN MUNICIPALITY DECISION MAKING. IN: ACCEPTABILITY OF TRANSPORT PRICING STRATEGIES

The general aim of the research reported in this chapter is to investigate the nature of conflicts between the self-interest of municipality politicians and the governmental goals with road pricing. In structured interviews, high-ranking municipality politicians were asked to express their preferences for a number of principles, reflecting the different goals which are supposed to guide their decisions about the level of road pricing fees. Results from these interviews are presented and discussed.
