Abstract

A scheme is proposed which is based on both the economic efficiency and the distributional efficiency of the transport investment alternatives. Community demand and supply curves are applied to accessibility and environmental quality according to economic theory. These are derived indirectly by regression analysis of al nd property values. The distributional efficiency of alternative transport systems is based upon welfare economics principles for both car owning and non-car owning families.
