This book discusses policy instruments for sustainable
infrastructure developments. Railways are one of the most important
developmental instruments of a region, province, or country. They
play a crucial role in economic development, urban growth, urban
mobility, regional susceptibility, market integration, and world
trade. Railways are an integral part of regional and urban
development, both in terms of freight and passenger transport. By
offering case studies from various regions and cities in South
Asia, this book examines the evolution of railway transportation
and the impact of these infrastructure projects on regional and
urban development. It examines the interactions between evolving
infrastructures and competing demands and considers the negative
and positive externalities of railway transportation for people,
places, and locations. The contributions analyze issues such as
network infrastructure planning and technological development,
passenger mobility and satisfaction, vulnerability to environmental
impacts, and cross-border trade.
