出版信息

《The Economics of Urban Transportation》由Kenneth Small和Erik Verhoef合著,於2007年由Routledge出版社在倫敦出版。該書是對Kenneth Small於1992年出版的《Urban Transportation Economics》一書的更新與擴展。

內容簡介

《The Economics of Urban Transportation》是Kenneth Small和Erik Verhoef合著,於2007年由Routledge出版的學術著作,該書更新並擴展了Kenneth Small於1992年出版的《Urban Transportation Economics》,是交通經濟學領域的最新研究成果。
全書共包含五個章節,涉及需求、成本、定價、投資以及運輸供應商的產業組織,這些章節涵蓋了過去三十多年學術文獻中出現的重要交通經濟學議題,包括放鬆管制、私有化和道路定價。
該書提供了支撐經濟學家和決策者審視不同交通系統方案的基礎理論,在道路定價領域尤為相關,因為電子收費、持續擁堵和燃油稅轉變等事件使得道路定價成為交通專業人士將面臨的問題。

書籍影響

該書提供了理論框架,引導經濟學家及政策制定者研究交通系統的替代方案。尤其在道路定價領域,其理論因電子收費技術的發展、持續的交通擁堵以及未來可能取代燃油稅的趨勢而顯得尤為重要。

Verhoef, has been fully updated, covering new areas such as parking policies, reliability of travel times, and the privatization of transportation services, as well as updated treatments of congestion modelling, environmental costs, and transit subsidies. Rigorous in approach and making use of real-world data and econometric techniques, it contains case studies from a range of countries including congestion charging in Norway, Singapore and the UK, light rail in the Netherlands and freeway tolls in the US. Small and Verhoef cover all basic topics needed for any application of economics to transportation: forecasting the demand for transportation services under alternative policies measuring all the costs including those incurred by users setting prices under practical constraints choosing and evaluating investments in basic facilities designing ways in which the private and public sectors interact to provide services. This book will be of great interest to students with basic calculus and some knowledge of economic theory who are engaged with transportation economics, planning and, or engineering, travel demand analysis, and many related fields. It will also be essential reading for researchers in any aspect of urban transportation.
