SYSTEM FOR INFLUENCING TRAFFIC IN A STREET NETWORK

A traffic control system allows traffic in a road network, particularly in a heavily populated area, to be influenced. In the road network, a road user traveling by a private transport vehicle can choose, at a stop for a public means of transport which has an associated parking facility for the private transport vehicle, whether to continue to travel by the private transport vehicle or by the public means of transport. Influencing elements output traffic information to the road user traveling by the private transport vehicle which is suitable for influencing the choice of means of transport by the road user. Ascertainment devices are provided for the purpose of ascertaining the traffic information which is to be output. A control center actuates the influencing elements dynamically on the basis of the ascertained traffic information. In line with the invention, the ascertainment devices are designed to ascertain costs which are incurred for the road user when choosing one of the means of transport. The traffic information which is to be output by the influencing elements comprises the ascertained costs.
