Getting the prices right + 10: Towards target-oriented pricing

December 28, 2001

Transport prices should better reflect the real costs to the users, make the transport sector more efficient and reduce its negative impacts on the environment and the citizens.

This publication will first describe the developments of transport and related problems over the last 10 years (chapter 2). Then, in chapter 3, it defines possible targets to achieve a more sustainable transport system. The fourth chapter deals with the instruments to reach these targets. Chapter 5, analyses different ways of using revenues from pricing systems and, finally, chapter 6 contains general conclusions and recommendations.
