Transport policy is an increasingly difficult area for all national
governments and regional/local authorities. Tackling car use and
realizing 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.
