Congestion charging in national transport policy
2001: National Transport Policy for 2001-2015 – sustainable development
tolling: motorways, cities – parking, bridges, cities – parking, bridges, congestion - entrance to city centers congestion - entrance to city centers
2005: National Transport Policy for 2006-2025„in addition to parking fees, tolls for using
motorways and on heavy vehicles - charges charges for entrance to central areas of big cities, for for entrance to central areas of big cities, for crossing selected bridges, etc.crossing selected bridges, etc.”

• General objective to validate the feasibility of approaches suggested in the REVENUE project vis-à-vis revenue use from MC pricing
• Proposed regulation schemes: based around the allocation of increased revenue from congestion charging (toll charged at cordon line) for roads / public transport investment
W. Suchorzewski, WUT, 12.06.2007
Warsaw• 1,7 million inh, agglomeration 2,5 million• over 400 cars per one thousand inh.• Public transport share – 65% of motorized
trips• Revenues from farebox covering 45% of
operating public transport costs• Congestion charging listed as longterm
measure in transport policy adopted in 1995 but no plans to implement it in visible future
W. Suchorzewski, WUT, 12.06.2007
Four options
1. No charging (except parking charging)
2. Charging - toll – 4.5 PLN (€1.12) - cordon around the center – 14 sq. Kms
3. Charging with revenues used to invest in new ring roads
4. Revenues used to upgrade tramway lines to LRT standard

Findings
Road traffic reduction on the cordon:• introduction of toll – reduction by 30%,• construction of ring road (outer zone) –
impact insignificant No of PT passengers crossing gates to
the CBD area - growth – 5,5 %,• additional tram line on North bridge –
small impact

Warsaw - main findings
• Under present traffic and economic conditions the social benefits of cordon charging would be limited.
• The financial viability and attitude of stakeholders towards the charging concept may stimulate decision makers to implement charging
• The direction of EU / National transport policies are important influences which could help stimulate introducing of fiscal measures.
