Abstract:
In recent years, the condition of urban traffic congestion in China has become more and more aggravated. Thus, from the social and environmental perspective, this paper has proposed a traffic congestion charging fee (TCCF) management model based on the system dynamics approach, taking Shanghai as a case study. The system dynamics approach applied in this paper focuses on the dynamic interrelations among some major variables in the TCCF management model. Hence, through a detailed discussion on these major variables, which are amount of car trips (ACT), growth of cars (GC), amount of NO x generation (ANG), attraction degree of car trips (ADCT), per vehicle area of roads (PVAR), and degree of traffic congestion (DTC), it is discovered that, when TCCF equals 45 yuan/day ⁎ vehicle, the DTC has declined by 67.84% and the ANG by 33.09%, which is a relatively satisfying solution to the traffic congestion problem.
