Congestion and departure time choice equilibrium in urban road networks

Raphael Ali Francis Lamotte

When drivers are regularly faced with congestion, they try to optimize their departure time. If the demand and the road network evolve slowly enough, the entire system may approach an equilibrium, i.e. a state such that no one can be better off by unilater ...
