OVERVIEW OF TOLL FINANCING IN COUNTRIES THAT ARE MEMBERS OF THE ORGANIZATION FOR ECONOMIC COOPERATION AND DEVELOPMENT

In 1985 the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) established an international committee to draw information for future application from the experiences of OECD nations and developing countries in financing highway improvements through tolls or direct private-sector provision of highway services. As the representative for the United States, the author was selected to chair the group that included representatives from France, Italy, Spain, Ireland, England, Belgium, West Germany, Norway, the European Economic Community, and the World Bank. The purpose of this paper is to highlight the findings of the report prepared by this committee.
