Applied Transport Economics: Policy, Management and Decision Making

This third edition of "Applied Transport Economics" has been completely revised and updated to cover the latest developments and thinking in transport economics. Professor Stuart Cole examines the application of economics techniques first to commercial transport operations, and second to public policy issues such as investment, integrated transport and competition, and third to the role of transport in its wider economic context. The style and approach, which proved so popular in the first two editions has been retained. This approach provides a transport economics text book for managers who are not familiar with economics techniques, students preparing for examinations in transport and other areas of business and public policy where an applied approach to economics is required, and economists entering the transport field.

Professor Stuart Cole is a member of the First Great Western Stakeholders Advisory Group representing travellers, business and academia. Professor Cole is a regular broadcaster on BBC radio and television and on S4C in both Welsh and English
