Abstract
The objective of this paper is the appraise of the socioeconomic impacts until 2035 of a proposed annual charging policy called Green Car Access Card (GCAC) for the daily access of a passenger car in the city center of Athens, Greece with the charging being adjusted according to the Euro class. A questionnaire survey was conducted using stated preference while a binary logistic model was developed to determine the acceptability of GCAC. A socioeconomic analysis was developed to quantify the impact on traffic, road safety, and air pollution until 2035 due to GCAC implementation. For the “Do Nothing” and the “GCAC” Scenarios the road casualties, the travel time, the fuel consumption and the emissions from motorized transport are estimated and expressed in monetary units. Results indicate a positive NPV which proves that the proposed investment provides a significant benefit to society.
