Abstract: We propose an urban transportation model that we use to evaluate transport policies in the city of Sousse (Tunisia). This model is aggregated with a flexible structure that allows us to adapt it to the available data and the problem in focus. We start by describing the procedure of the construction of the model and then develop the empirical application. We take into account multiple transport modes and we find that road pricing and fuel taxes reduce the usage of private cars. Modal switch will mainly concern other non-massified road modes. The overall reduction in congestion and emissions remain small. We conclude that, to be efficient, pricing reforms should be accompanied by an improvement in the supply of public transportation.
