Transforming payment choices by doubling fees on the Illinois Tollway

Gene Amromin, Carrie Jankowski and Richard D. Porter

Economic Perspectives, 2007, vol. 31, issue Q II, 22-47

Abstract: Using data from the Illinois Tollway, the authors study the effectiveness of a particular application of pricing incentives, in conjunction with a mass-marketing campaign, to foster adoption of electronic toll collection. Dissecting the consumer response by income level, the authors reveal interesting heterogeneity of consumer payment choice in this environment.
