THE TRANSPORTATION STRUCTURE SCHEME; LOST OPPORTUNITIES

G Hupkes

Open publisher page 0 citations

Abstract

The author analyses the main and sub objectives of the transportation structure scheme and concludes that comparison of the various alternatives is almost impossible because of the unequal specification of costs. Public participation therefore will lose a lot of opportunities. Another point of criticsm is that there is confusion between policy and objectives before the details of the alternatives are clearly outlined. It appears that expenditure on public transport will have to remain at the present level or may even have to decrease. /TRRL/
