The International Transport Forum at the OECD is an intergovernmental organisation with 52 member countries. It acts as a strategic think tank for transport policy and organizes an annual summit of ministers. Our work is underpinned by economic research, statistics collection and policy analysis, often undertaken in collaboration with many of the world's leading research figures in academia, business and government. This series of Discussion Papers is intended to disseminate the International Transport Forum’s research findings rapidly among specialists in the field concerned.

Road Pricing with Complication
Standard textbook analyses of road pricing tend to assume that users are homogenous,
that there is no travel time risk, and to have a view of congestion as static. The simple analysis
also ignores that real pricing schemes are only rough approximations to ideal systems and that
the general economic context may also have implications for optimal pricing. This paper
reviews these issues and discusses how taking them into account may affect estimates of
optimal tolls.
