Report Of The Ninety Fifth Round Table On Transport Economics

As the countries of Central and Eastern Europe undergo radical economic upheavals, the question of pan-European transport is examined in this Round Table.

This Round Table considers the benefits of different modes of transport for the general community and their respective contributions to economic growth.

Round Table 99 undertook a thorough analysis of the potential impact of environmental protection, railway privatisation, logistical requirements and falling prices on the structure and operation of the freight transport sector, and of their effects on government policies.

This Round Table gives a clearer picture of the whole range of interurban transport problems. It provides both theoretical analyses and specific case studies, and explores such fundamental matters as the actual social utility of transport.
