This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 1977 BTE Report on Cost Recovery in Australian Transport 1974-75 provided estimates of the aggregate level of financial cos~ recovery in the various modes, by broad transport task. It suggested that there were substantial differences between modes in the level of cost recovery. The 1979 Transport Pricing and Cost Recovery seminar concluded that economic efficiency objectives required more attention 1n transport pricing and investment decisions than had been apparent in the past. The principles for economically efficient pricing were spelt out, and several specific issues were identified, which are worth following up in this seminar. These include reconciliation of financial and econom1C efficiency objectives and the identification of appropriate revenue targets; specification of the changes 1n accounting and management information systems which would be required to implement more economically rational pricing; and identification of the principles for estimating compensation for public service obligations. Finally, a brief account 18 given of recent BTE work on cost recovery in general aviation, and in road and rail transport. BTE has suggested that econom1C efficiency considerations would require substantial modification to the present means of collecting revenue from general aviation, with more reliance placed on direct pricing measures like flight-specific alr navigation charges and airport movement charges. On road-rail competition, an order of magnitude comparison of road and rail cost recovery in the Adelaide-Victorian border corridor suggests that only the road mode approximately covers short-run avoidable costs and that both modes fail to cover long-run avoidable costs.

Download or read book Surface Freight Transportation written by Phillip Herr and published by DIANE Publishing. This book was released on 2011-05 with total page 67 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Road, rail, and waterway freight transportation is vital to the nation's economy. Gov't., tax, regulatory, and infrastructure investment policies can affect the costs that shippers pass on to their customers. If gov't. policy gives one mode a cost advantage over another, then shipping prices and customers' use of freight modes can be distorted, reducing the overall efficiency of the nation's economy. This report: (1) describes how gov't. policies can affect competition and efficiency within the surface freight transportation sector; (2) determines what is known about the extent to which all costs are borne by surface freight customers; and (3) discusses the use of the findings when making surface freight transportation policy. Illus. A print on demand report.

This book was released on 2005-11-30 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: European railways are undergoing far-reaching reform to foster competition and promote the development of international freight and passenger services. Separation of infrastructure management from train operation is at the heart of the reform and requires the introduction of charges for the use of the network. Integration of European markets should provide great opportunities for rail to grow. This ECMT report sets out how barriers to growth arising from differences in the way trains pay to use national networks can be overcome. It recommends moving to a set of simple charges for freight that create similar incentives for the management and planning of train operations across borders. Decisions on the structure of charges are constrained by the way in which competition is designed to develop under national and European transport policies. The report examines the way charges can be structured differently in different parts of the rail market - suburban passenger services, inter-city services, high speed trains, domestic and international freight etc. - to increase cost recovery and maximise the financial stability of infrastructure managers without damaging the development of competition.The recommendations have been taken up by the European Union through its Committee on Developing European Railways.
