The Gothenburg congestion charge. Effects, design and politics (2015, background): “In particular, analyses of traffic effects have only been published for the congestion charging systems in Singapore (Olszewski and Xie, 2005; Phang and Toh, 1997), London (Santos, 2005; Santos and Shaffer, 2004), Stockholm (Börjesson et al., 2012; Eliasson et al., 2009) and Milan (Carnovale and Gib”
The Stockholm congestion charges – five years on. Effects, acceptability and lessons learnt (2012, background): “An overview of the effects can be found in (Eliasson et al. 2009) and (Eliasson 2008), where the latter also discusses the main lessons from the trial in terms of design, effects, acceptability and political process.”
Reducing Urban Road Transportation Externalities: Road Pricing in Theory and in Practice (2011, positive): “In preparation for the Stockholm trial, public transport services were improved by creating new bus lines, expanding capacity of underground and commuter train lines, and building new park-and-ride facilities (Eliasson et al. 2009).”
The urban road pricing scheme to curb pollution in Milan, Italy: Description, impacts and preliminary cost-benefit analysis assessment (2010, background): “…homepage: www.elsevier .com/locate / t ra is effective in reducing congestion and, consequently, travel times (Transport for London, 2003 and 2007; Eliasson et al., 2009); causes a modal shift toward public transport and non-motorised modes; improves, as a side effect, the urban and environmental…”
Air pollution and health risks due to vehicle traffic (2013, background): “Eliasson et al. (2009) estimated that a similar zone in Stockholm would avoid 20–25 deaths annually due to traffic-related air pollution in the inner city, and 25–30 deaths annually in themetropolitan area, which contains 1.4 million inhabitants.”
Explaining differences in acceptability before and acceptance after the implementation of a congestion charge in Stockholm (2010, background): “During the trail, the number of cars entering the zone decreased with 22% on weekdays between 6.30 am and 6.30 pm, and as a result, congestion and pollution levels decreased (Eliasson et al., 2009; Stockholmförsöket, 2006).”
Review of evidence on health aspects of air pollution – REVIHAAP Project. Technical Report. World Health Organization Regional Office for Europe 2013 (2013, background): “The toxicological evidence up to about 2006/2007 has been reviewed by the EPA (2008a), although the majority of studies were pre-2004.”
Modelling the effects of COVID-19 on travel mode choice behaviour in India (2020, background): “There is a decent amount of literature on travel behaviour during planned (e.g. van Exel and Rietveld, 2001; Clegg, 2007; Eliasson et al., 2009) and unplanned transport disruptions (e.g. Wesemann et al., 1996; Giuliano and Golob, 1998; López‐Rousseau, 2005).”
Political and Public Acceptability of Congestion Pricing: Ideology and Self Interest (2010, neutral): “An overview of the various effects observed during the experiment is also provided by Eliasson et al. (2009).”
What Can Be Learned from Spatial Economics? (2019, neutral): “…in the 10– 20 percent reduction in car use necessary to eliminate most queues, only a relatively small share ( 40 percent or less) of the suppressed car trips are replaced by mass transit; the rest disappeared due to car sharing, combining trips, or simply foregoing the trip (Eliasson et al. 2009).”
