Abstract: Abstract The traffic flow of periphery area between freeway and urban expressway needs scientific and accurate control. We should establish reasonable policies and measures to control the traffic; guide travel by economic measures, and reduce traffic congestion. The adaptability of existing congestion charging and traffic growth is different. This article summarizes the periphery freeway congestion mechanism by supply and demand theory, resource scarcity theory. Based on the comparison between the charging models at home and abroad, it builds the bi-level programming model for periphery freeway congestion, turns the traditional toll mode into congestion charging, and takes freeway G2 as an example. Practice proves that the methods are feasible and efficient and it could provide the foundation for alleviating traffic congestion of periphery area (Fund Project: 863 Program, Project number: 2007AA11Z213).
