Edited by Bruno De Borger, Professor of Economics, University of Antwerp, Belgium and Stef Proost, Professor of Environmental and Transport Economics, Catholic University of Leuven, Belgium

This timely book deals with the problem of pricing passenger and freight transportation within Europe. The contributors argue that current legislation affecting pricing and regulation is increasingly less successful in dealing with market failures and externalities such as congestion, air pollution, noise and accidents. Technological progress and greater European co-operation has brought increased scope for the reform of transport policies.

‘. . . a useful handbook of state-of-the-art modeling of urban road pricing.’
