BASIC ELEMENTS GOVERNING STATE SUBSIDIES TO THE RAILWAYS

The use of a charging system based on the marginal social cost seems better than the direct determination of a contribution to infrastructure charges based on the Lima method. However, it does not provide an answer to the question: what is the value of railways to the local authority? It can only make rules so that decentralized decisions of economic factors are taken in the interest of local authorities. If this objective could be fulfilled, would not this be a very important step?
