Прогрессивная шкала дорожных сборов для пиковых нагрузок Explanation: Я бы так написала, т.к. это наиболее нейтральный вариант. В Лондоне берут плату за въезд в центр города, как и в Сингапуре. А в Вашингтоне заставляют платить за freeway, т.е. платную дорогу. У всех свои заморочки. Одним словом трудно перевести. Удачи вам в переводе. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 23 hrs (2008-11-08 02:20:12 GMT) Post-grading -------------------------------------------------- Ой, Георгий, вы меня совсем захвалили. Мне просто ОЧЕНЬ приятно, что и я вам иногда могу помочь. Ваш вариант в окне "Notes to answerer" мне очень нравится. До связи! |

Reference: How Congestion Pricing Works Reference information: Congestion pricing is widely used in a variety ofbusinesses. Movie theater matinees, early-bird dinners inpopular restaurants, and free or bargain-rate phone callson evenings and weekends are all forms of congestionpricing applied to different products. When demand ishigh and capacity limited, prices are higher than whendemand is low.The marginal cost of a seat at a movie inthe midweek afternoon, for example, is virtually zero,but in the evening the opportunity cost of that seat issubstantially higher because other patrons would bewilling to pay to occupy it. As a result, theater ownerscharge lower prices in the early afternoon than they doat night.Congestion pricing on transportation facilities works ina similar way. When demand is high, tolls are chargedand they are higher than when demand is low. http://74.125.95.104/search?q=cache:RIgrpgUggOAJ:siepr.stanf... -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 18 mins (2008-11-07 02:40:42 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Вот супер-замечательная статья про Сингапур на эту тему: http://74.125.95.104/search?q=cache:PPVH5pmI7-QJ:selard.com/... -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 19 mins (2008-11-07 02:41:42 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Вот как это в этой статье обзывается: электронная система оплаты проезда ... во время пиковых нагрузок утром и вечером. |
