一项调查报告发现，为了尽量减少贴现寿命成本，典型的城市州际公路应设计更厚的路面持续更长的时间之间的修补。此外，现有道路的边际路面磨损成本相当高，而最佳的大容量城市州际公路则不会。有人指出，如果高速公路按照最佳标准建造，那么对边际成本征税的需要以及随之而来的卡车运输业收入的转移，在国家高速公路网的很大一部分上实际上将被消除。在这项研究中，最佳公路定价和投资的标准模型重新制定，包括公路耐久性作为一个长期的决策变量。由此产生的定价规则包括与稀缺容量相关的拥堵费和与稀缺耐久性相关的重型车辆费用。表达式推导出边际成本用户收费，最佳容量，最佳耐久性，和长期的边际路面磨损成本。然后对模型中与耐久性有关的部分进行了检查。
An investigation is reported which found that in order to minimize discounted lifetime costs, typical urban interstate highways should be designed with thicker pavements lasting much longer between repavings. Also, existing roads have marginal pavement-wear costs that are quite high; optimal high-volume urban interstates would not. It is noted that the need for marginal-cost taxation, and the accompanying diversion of trucking industry revenues, would be virtually eliminated on a large portion of the nation's highway network if the highways were built to optimal standards. In this study, the standard model of optimal highway pricing and investment was reformulated to include highway durability as a long-run decision variable. The resulting pricing rule includes both a congestion charge related to scarce capacity, and a heavy-vehicle charge related to scarce durability. Expressions are derived for marginal-cost user charges, optimal capacity, optimal durability, and long-run marginal pavement-wear cost. An examination was then made of those parts of the model related to durability.
