abstract |
Transport policy is an increasingly difficult area for all national governments and
regional/local authorities. Tackling car use and realising a sustainable transport
system appears to be very difficult. Developing public transport is seen as an increasingly
important element in improving the transport system, especially in densely populated
areas. At the same time however, governments are under increasing pressure to cut
taxation. As a result there is a growing gap between increasing policy need for public
transport and government resources to fund that need. This timely book explores one
solution to this dilemma, which is the use of local charges and taxes dedicated to
support public transport. Unfare Solutions examines how and why such charges have
evolved and how they do (or do not) relate to modern transport policy developments
and theory. It shows innovative funding techniques developed by both public transport
providers and federal and local authorities. The authors are very experienced in the
field of mobility and public transport. They have conducted many researches in this
field (including a major CEC research project towards the use of charges and taxes
for public transport) and written several books and publications about the economics
of transport in a sustainable context. |
