• What Can Be Learned from Spatial Economics? (2019, unknown): “In (5), the optimal transit fare is equal to its social marginal cost, corrected by the gap between the price and the social marginal cost of car use.”
• Transport Policies and Development (2015, background): “This may be because subsidies are costly and taxation is politically difficult to implement (Anas & Lindsey, 2011; Timilsina & Dulal, 2011).”
• The effects of license plate-based driving restrictions on air quality: Theory and empirical evidence (2017, background): “” Anas and Lindsey (2011, pp. 69) mention that the emissions rate is a “flat-bottomed, U-shaped function of speed with a minimum at an intermediate speed that depends on the pollutant” and that heavy congestion yields travel speeds that are below this minimum speed.

• Better Lucky Than Rich? Welfare Analysis of Automobile Licence Allocations in Beijing and Shanghai (2018, background): “Among real-world implementations, congestion pricing schemes have been adopted in London, Singapore and Stockholm and have been found effective in reducing congestion (Anas and Lindsey 2011).”
• Highway toll and air pollution: evidence from Chinese cities (2017, background): “Anas and Lindsey (2011) review a few simulation and estimation studies in London, Stockholm, and Milan.”
• Public transit investment and sustainable transportation: A review of studies of transit's impact on traffic congestion and air quality (2015, background): “…congestion and emission externalities associated with auto travel should be corrected via the price mechanism (such as congestion and emission fees), though such Pigouvian fees have not yet garnered widespread implementation, for a variety of political and economic reasons (Anas and Lindsey, 2011).”
• External costs of electric vehicles (2016, background): “Current policies and visions on sustainable transport try to get cars completely out of the city centers (cf. Anas and Lindsey, 2011) – a place where EV have their main environmental advantage over traditionally powered cars.”
