How to implement a sustainable user pay model Mid Conference Workshop B Wednesday 19th November 2014, 5:00pm – 8:00pm Road funding is currently sourced from a mix of registration fees, general taxation, Commonwealth grants and some tolls. Other than for tolls, there is no direct price signal facing the commuter and congestion remains a significant problem in some parts of our major cities. Is it feasible for road funding to move to a more sustainable and regulated basis, similar to electricity and urban water whereby roads are treated as a network and users pay more directly for their use? In this workshop Joe Branigan will explore the issues and options around one of the most important remaining microeconomic reform tasks. Why attend this workshop? • How to Implement a pay by use model • Strategies to optimise the road funding mix • How to create a more sustainable funding and road usage model
