Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: High-speed Rail (HSR) is a technological transportation advance that has raised the interest of policy makers and researchers worldwide. The study of High-speed Rail is a recent phenomenon but has received increasing attention due to the extension of this mode of transportation around the globe. Evaluating High-Speed Rail contains some of the most recent and cutting edge studies on HSR from different disciplines. The book is organized around a variety of key topics related to the evaluation of High Speed Rail projects and experiences. These topics include: the economic appraisal and evaluation of High-Speed Rail projects; the evaluation of indirect and direct effects of High-Speed Rail; its territorial, redistributive and environmental impacts; its contribution or limitation to urban growth; and the management of challenges created by the arrival of High-Speed Rail lines to core cities. It also covers the contribution of High-Speed Rail to tourism and its impact on intermodal competition, with especial consideration to air transportation. Chapters analyse the expected effects of introducing on-track competition and designing public-private contracts to develop new lines. This cutting-edge volume offers rigorous analysis from top researchers in the field with a clear intention to deliver policy implications and provide the latest analysis on the impact of High Speed Rail. This book is suitable for students and academics interested in transportation infrastructure, economic impacts of public investments, mobility, planning and urban affairs, as well as researchers and policy makers in the transportation and infrastructure sector.

This book was released on 2006 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While deregulation and privatization in the transport sector have led to increases in productivity in general, not all reform hopes have materialized. In particular, the reform of the provision of infrastructure services has not caused the expected mobilization of private resources, and concession relations have been less stable and less efficiency-enhancing than expected. In view of current discussions of reform results, the Round Table focused on the following issues: Where are the limits for deregulation? The discussion identified the conditions under which competition and potential competition can be expected to work. More care has to be applied to single out the transport sub-sectors where these conditions hold. Which are the crucial factors that necessitate regulation? Many parts of the transport sector are fraught with indivisibilities, network economies, sector specific assets or lack of resale markets for investment goods. Where these factors play an important role, regulation might improve the efficiency of the transport system. What is the role of the transaction costs of regulation? The neglect of (surrogate) market transaction costs, in particular in the case of vertical disintegration, has led to lower than expected benefits from the reforms. What is the cost of regulation? Regulatory policies have to take account of the information asymmetries between the actors involved. Monitoring and control costs have often prohibited the depoliticizing of regulatory processes. The Round Tale discussed to what extent a rule-bound, performance-based regulation could contain the friction resulting from discretionary regulatory powers.
