DEMAND ORIENTATED PASSENGER PUBLIC TRANSPORT POLICY

G Storsberg

Open publisher page 0 citations

Abstract

The supply of public passenger transport should in future be improved both as regards quantitative and qualitative demands. This applies also to the introduction of new transport technology. The number of public transport passengers shows a downward trend. In competition with private cars, public transport can only succeed if comparable conditions are obtained. This is a question of covering costs where this is possible. Where no private of private sector alternative is available, the introduction of public transport is essential to ensure a minimum availability of means of transport.
