纽约市拥堵收费后公共交通客流增长与出行需求的空间不均衡变化 / Public transit gains and spatially uneven travel demand changes after NYC congestion pricing
1️⃣ 一句话总结
本研究利用时间序列基础模型,在缺乏理想对照组的情况下,评估了纽约市2025年实施的拥堵收费政策效果,发现该政策显著提升了地铁和公交客运量,但整体出行需求略有下降,且这些影响在空间和社区层面存在显著不均衡,凸显了公平性考量。
New York City implemented the nation's first cordon-based congestion pricing program in January 2025, providing an opportunity to evaluate how system-wide urban mobility responds to large-scale pricing interventions. Because such policies generate spillovers across modes and locations, credible control groups are difficult to construct. We address this challenge using time series foundation models to generate probabilistic counterfactual demand forecasts with calibrated uncertainty. Applying this framework to bus, subway, and aggregate trip volume data, we find that post-policy bus and subway ridership increased significantly relative to expected no-policy demand, while overall travel demand decreased modestly. The effects are spatially heterogeneous: while reductions in overall travel demand are concentrated within the Congestion Relief Zone, transit gains extend beyond Manhattan's core. Socio-demographic analyses further reveal uneven adaptation across neighborhoods, highlighting spatial equity implications. Our framework provides a scalable approach for the uncertainty-aware evaluation of system-wide urban interventions when clean control groups are unavailable.
