Congestion pricing on US toll facilities (REVISED)

'Congestion pricing' broadly defined is any road use charge or toll adjusted according to the level of congestion.

Level of congestion can be measured either:

- real time as traffic density (dynamic pricing) or

- indirectly by time of day, weekday or weekend, seasons and other rough proxies for congestion

All the dynamic priced facilities are transponder-only. The others mostly have cash tolls as well, and in most cases, but not all, the differentials only apply to electronic tolls, that is those using a transponder.
