Synopsis

Designed to provide managers/policy makers with an insight into transport economics, this book also looks at the various techniques of decision making in this field and the rationale behind such decisions (for example, fares policies and transport investment). The book's approach is to begin with the practical managerial issue, and then look at examples, case studies and make suggestions. Cole also discusses the principles and theoretical concepts in varying degrees of depth where necessary.
