Objectives of research
Main objectives:
(i) to identify the benefits to the private sector of optimal urban transport strategies, and the potential for obtaining private sector funding to reflect those benefits; (ii) to determine the differences between strategies optimised using public funds and those optimised within the constraints imposed by private funding initiatives; (iii) to propose mechanisms by which private sector funding can be provided so as to achieve appropriately optimal transport strategies while maintaining quality of operation; and (iv) to use the results to provide more general guidance on the role of private sector funding for urban transport in the EU.
