The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $519,991 Faculty Early Career Development (CAREER) Project Grant under the Engineering program (CFDA 47.041) to the University of Illinois. This 5-year project will develop new transportation system models that account for the discontinuous behavior of transportation services when pricing is introduced or removed, such as the impact on bus boarding times. The research will investigate optimal transportation system design and pricing policies, including how low-level tolls and parking fees can capture benefits compared to higher welfare-maximizing prices. The project will also survey public attitudes towards transportation pricing strategies and integrate educational components to provide civil engineering students experience in transportation policy implementation. The research, education, and outreach activities are closely integrated to broadly disseminate the project's impacts.
