High-speed Rail (HSR) is a technological transportation advance
that has raised the interest of policy makers and researchers
worldwide. The study of High-speed Rail is a recent phenomenon but
has received increasing attention due to the extension of this mode
of transportation around the globe. Evaluating High-Speed Rail
contains some of the most recent and cutting edge studies on HSR
from different disciplines. The book is organized around a variety
of key topics related to the evaluation of High Speed Rail projects
and experiences. These topics include: the economic appraisal and
evaluation of High-Speed Rail projects; the evaluation of indirect
and direct effects of High-Speed Rail; its territorial,
redistributive and environmental impacts; its contribution or
limitation to urban growth; and the management of challenges
created by the arrival of High-Speed Rail lines to core cities. It
also covers the contribution of High-Speed Rail to tourism and its
impact on intermodal competition, with especial consideration to
air transportation. Chapters analyse the expected effects of
introducing on-track competition and designing public-private
contracts to develop new lines. This cutting-edge volume offers
rigorous analysis from top researchers in the field with a clear
intention to deliver policy implications and provide the latest
analysis on the impact of High Speed Rail. This book is suitable
for students and academics interested in transportation
infrastructure, economic impacts of public investments, mobility,
planning and urban affairs, as well as researchers and policy
makers in the transportation and infrastructure sector.
