“…It is true that the restrictions forbid access to some drivers, but LEZs has a non-trivial effect on traffic because of people's behavioural responses. In fact, the policy might lead to a fleet renewal (Börjesson et al, 2012;Isaksen & Bjorn, 2021;Percoco, 2014;Wolff, 2014), making the number of affected drivers lower than expected. Furthermore, if the area of implementation is small, it is not time-consuming for people to avoid the restricted area and just drive a bit longer, and thus overall traffic in the city might even increase.…”
