The weighted traffic equilibrium problem introduced in [17], in which the equilibrium conditions have been expressed in terms of a weighted variational inequality, studies a transportation network in presence of congestion. For such a problem, existence and regularity theorems have been proved in [8]. In this paper, we analyze the dual problem and characterize the weighted traffic equilibrium solutions by means of Lagrange multipliers, which allow to describe the behavior of the weighted transportation network.
