The Evolution of Congestion Pricing
I think in this case, New York City case, if I'm correct, it's based on a target amount of revenue to raise. Stockholm had a new political regime that came into power and they implemented a pilot congestion pricing program for six month trial in 2006. And the public then voted, there was a public referendum and they voted to reinstitute congestion pricing in 2007. Researchers have tracked the evolution of acceptance over time and you see that it doesn't change from everyone hating it to everyone loving it.
