THE COMMON CARRIER SYSTEM IN A MODERN ECONOMY - RESEARCH PROBLEMS

Recent developments in economic analysis, statistical surveys and engineering systems research have made it possible to create new conditions for study of common carrier policy. Such studies are now well beyond the prototype stage and require definitive focus for best results. Such results could be achieved through legislative creation of a transportation research institution capable of assisting in the resolution of conflicts in the transportation field. Alternative models for such as organization exist, and there is sufficient experience to justify going ahead with the idea.
