>Dear Colleagues,

>I would like to inform you for the existence of AFFORD project, a DGVII-RTD
>funded project.  AFFORD project deals especially with urban transportation
>pricing. More specifically, it deals with the conflict between the economic
>theory, which suggests that marginal cost pricing is the right solution to
>such problems, and practical experience, which suggests that such pricing
>measures may be hard to implement. AFFORD Project aims to investigate that
>conflict and its possible solutions, through a combination of economic
>analysis, predictive modelling, attitudinal surveys, as well as the
>assessment of a full range of fiscal and financial measures within a number
>of case study cities in Europe.
