NOx from road traffic is supposed to decrease significantly over the next 15 years. This is especially relevant for car traffic, due to the increasing use of catalytic convertors. Still it is necessary to use other measures to reduce pollution, by reducing traffic, by rerouting traffic, by shielding and by reducing speed. In this report the authors show the effect of various measures and their cost both in direct terms and their social costs. The most efficient measures are denser land use, taxes on buying and using a car, and 'mijogater'. Depending on the strength of each measure, the effect in terms of lower Nox-emission may be around 10 per cent. The cost of implementing such measures are relatively small, but the general cost is high because of the value of abandoned trips. These costs must be weighted against the positive effects of reduced health problems etc due to less emissions. |
