THE MARGINAL EXTERNAL COSTS OF URBAN TRANSPORT. IN: URBAN TRANSPORT
A necessary input for the analysis of efficient transport policies is the marginal external cost of each transport mode. This paper analyzes the marginal external costs of urban transportation. These costs include but are not limited to the marginal external cost of congestion, accidents, air pollution and noise. The costs are computer for cars, buses, trams, metro and trucks. The methodology is described and applied to the urban area of Brussels for the year of 2005.
