INRIX GLOBAL TRAFFIC SCORECARD 2018
Causes of passenger vehicle congestion?
▪ Migration to urban center occupations
▪ Propensity to Single Occupant Vehicles (SOVs)
▪ Will MaaS alleviate or exacerbate the problem?
‒ Uber / Lyft - mostly increased congestion
‒ Google Waze – decreased
▪ Vehicle Automation – TBD?
Growing acceptance of congestion pricing
▪Managed access fees – Corridor pricing
▪Make it democratic‒A meaningfully high penalty for SOVs – reflecting costs‒Toll/Congestion fee reduction for HOVs – part of solution
▪ Increase
‒ Traffic flow ‒PMT throughput ‒Revenue
How to validate togetherness?
In a vehicle – With mobile app and biometrics

▪ Partner with MaaS technology
‒ Encourage Increased PMT with graduated HOV discounts
‒ Publish the HOV rates to keep the MaaS optimized
‒ Let MaaS providers manage end-user payments
▪ Increase your revenue and PMT throughput metrics
▪ Keep your highways moving efficiently
