Economic Research Centre and published by European Conference of Ministers of Transportaion. This book was released on 2003-06-24 with total page 166 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Beyond the immediate effect of reducing passengers' insecurity, safer public transport also means higher patronage during off-peak hours, less money spent on repairing damage, lower staff absenteeism and less disruption to services. Governments therefore cannot afford to disregard the problem of vandalism in public transport. The reader will find in this publication the recommendations which the Round Table made on ways to combat vandalism, namely: the creation of local partnerships between all actors involved in crime prevention, policing and law enforcement; exchanges of experience; the issuing of guidelines on crime prevention and infrastructure design; and publication of case studies of successes and failures. Classifying individual measures is therefore one of the tasks that national and international authorities faced with this growing problem urgently need to address. Terrorism, because of its distinctive nature and change in nature since the attacks of 11 September 2001, needs to be tackled on a much larger scale and therefore requires a different type of approach. Here, too, there is clearly a need for international co-operation and the Round Table identified a number of possible avenues to explore, which the reader can learn more about from this publication.

Economic Research Centre and published by . This book was released on 2004 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Europe's rail-freight market is undergoing sweeping changes. While an expanding long-distance export market is favorable to rail transportation, railways have been steadily losing market share to the truck industry. The reasons for this are numerous and range from a sub-standard quality of service, lack of advanced computer technology and transport logistics, and a shortage of commercial marketng technique. As rail networks open up to competition, new rail firms are springing up. Will the current operators keep pace with change or are they threatened with extinction? Are new firms going to be commercially viable in areas in whcih traditional operators have always failed? The Round Table attempted to answer these questions by taking a look at how the European railway landscape is being reshaped. In doing so, it learned lessons which stand to benefit transportation policy throughout Europe.
