EFFECTS AND PROFITABILITY OF CONSTRUCTING THE NEW UNDERGROUND FREIGHT TRANSPORT SYSTEM

This paper presents an evaluation of the new underground freight transport system. This study provides a tentative calculation of the cost of constructing this system in the 23 wards of Tokyo, as well as of the effect of the construction of such a system. Based on this, the study will also provide a cost-benefit analysis and investigate the usefulness of the project. In addition, it will provide an analysis of profitability from the management-related perspective of the body which will conduct the project, as well as examine other aspects for the realisation of the project.
