    主讲内容简介：

    Tradable credit scheme is a quantity-based instrument for congestion mitigation. In the scheme, a traffic management authority will first distribute mobility credits among eligible travelers and require them to pay a certain number of credits to access roads. Travelers will be allowed to freely trade the credits in a market, which will determine their price. The authority achieves its congestion reduction goal by choosing how to distribute and collect credits. In this talk, we will discuss issues associated with the design, analysis and implementation of the schemes.
