Transport has remained high on the British political agenda as gridlock on the roads and the aftershocks of rail privatization have forced continual modifications and developments in the approach of the Labour government, which came to office in 1997, and pledged to establish an integrated transport policy. This comprehensively revised and updated new edition of the leading text in the field provides full coverage of the historical, political and European context of British transport policy, of the new financial and regulatory regimes of the Twenty-first century and of the impact of such major new initiatives as London's congestion charge.

This book offers an exceptionally well informed and well documented study of the processes by which a Treaty is not only created, but managed and adapted as a living organism, responding to changing political and economic circumstances throughout its life. Bermuda 2, which governed air services between the UK and the USA from 1977 till 2008, had to accommodate rapid but volatile market growth, conflicting policies for a more open market, and a market structure which evolved from national champions to multinational alliances. With stakes high enough for Presidents and Prime Ministers to intervene at key moments, the dramatic narrative (Part I) is helpfully cross-referenced to a fully annotated Treaty text (Part II) as well as a unique collection of supplementary documents (Part III). These three elements offer students of international law and international relations, as well as to-day's post-BREXIT practitioners, a comprehensive guide to the wide range of legal instruments and negotiating strategies that may be used to govern and regulate a major industry within the framework of a Treaty relationship.
