本文研究了瓶颈拥堵和最优时变拥堵收费对城市空间结构的影响。我们开发了一个模型，在这个模型中，异构通勤者选择从家庭和住宅地点出发的时间，在一个单中心城市中，瓶颈位于中心市中心和邻近郊区之间。然后，我们证明了通勤者根据他们的旅行时间价值和灵活性在时间和空间上对自己进行排序。此外，我们发现引入最优拥堵收费会改变城市空间结构，这与以往的文献形成了对比。我们通过一个例子进一步证明，拥堵收费会导致城市向外扩张，这对富裕的通勤者有利，但对贫穷的通勤者不利。(C) 2017爱思唯尔公司版权所有。
This study examines the effects of bottleneck congestion and an optimal time-varying congestion toll on the spatial structure of cities. We develop a model in which heterogeneous commuters choose departure times from home and residential locations in a monocentric city with a bottleneck located between a central downtown and an adjacent suburb. We then demonstrate that commuters sort themselves temporally and spatially on the basis of their value of travel time and their flexibility. Furthermore, we reveal that introducing an optimal congestion toll alters the urban spatial structure, which contrasts with the previous literature. We further demonstrate through an example that congestion tolling can cause the city to physically expand outward, which helps rich commuters but hurts poor commuters. (C) 2017 Elsevier Inc.
