    Efficiency in Railway Operations and Infrastructure Management (2015)
    Paris : OECD Publishing

    Language: English
    Pages: 1 Online-Ressource (23 p.) , 21 x 29.7cm.
    Series Statement: International Transport Forum Discussion Papers no.2015/12
    Keywords: Transport
    Abstract: The ITF has produced a series of reports and discussion papers addressing the interrelated issues of railway structure and performance; see for example Beck et al. (2013), Thompson (2013), ECMT (2007) and, Thompson (2007). The academic literature on this subject is also significant, with good examples in Mizutani et al (2014), Nash et al. (2013), Van de Velde et al. (2012) and Kirchner (2002, 2004, 2007 and 2011). All of these studies have confronted the question of how to measure the performance, or efficiency, of railways both in the sense of how one railway compares with others (cross-section) and how railways have changed as a result of policy interventions (time-series). The purpose of the roundtable discussions was to revisit the issue of how to define and measure efficiency at the proper level of detail and with reasonably available data so that policy makers can benchmark the performance of their railways, evaluate the impact of past changes in railway structure, ownership or regulation and assess the likely outcome of future initiatives. The challenge is inherent in the phrases “proper level of detail” and “reasonably available data”.

    Port Investment and Container Shipping Markets : Roundtable Summary and Conclusions (2014)
    Paris : OECD Publishing

    Series Statement: International Transport Forum Discussion Papers no.2014/03
    Keywords: Transport
    Abstract: Ports around the globe are planning expansions to respond to the growth of containerised maritime trade and to the development needs of their hinterland economies. Following the dip in trade induced by the 2007-2008 financial crisis, global volumes are on the rise again (Figure 1), driven by growth in the emerging economies. Growth in trade will be supported by the WTO Trade Facilitation Agreement signed in Bali in December 2013 and expanding container port capacity is again a pressing issue in many locations. Inadequate container port infrastructure can be a severe logistics bottleneck and a constraint on growth. Efficiency and capacity need to increase in step with demand. At the same time port policy makers and container terminal operators have to match capacity to demand carefully to avoid costly overinvestment, a task complicated by rapid technological change in liner shipping markets with the introduction of larger vessels, rising fuel prices and restructuring through mergers and alliances.

    Public Private Partnerships for Transport Infrastructure : Renegotiations, How to Approach Them and Economic Outcomes (2014)
    Paris : OECD Publishing

    Language: English
    Pages: 1 Online-Ressource (30 p.) , 21 x 29.7cm.
    Series Statement: International Transport Forum Discussion Papers no.2014/25
    Keywords: Transport
    Abstract: The use of public private partnerships (PPPs) for investment in transport infrastructure has a long history, spreading rapidly in Latin America in the 1980s and in the 1990s in the UK. There are many forms of PPP, ranging from the project finance type (e.g. Design, Build, Finance, Maintain, Operate (DBFMO) contracts) to concessions with economic regulation, with the line between partnership and outright privatisation somewhat blurred. PPPs sought to bring efficiency incentives from private sector management into network industries (power transmission, water supply, road and rail infrastructure provision) that bear the hallmarks of natural monopoly and were traditionally managed by the state in many places.

    Keywords: Verkehrsinfrastruktur ; Öffentlich-private Partnerschaft ; Regulierung ; Transport ; Arbeitspapier ; Graue Literatur
    Abstract: This report is based on discussions at an International Transport Forum Roundtable1 convened in September 2012 to review experience with the regulation of public private partnerships (PPPs) in the transport sector. Conclusions from the debate are developed with reference to the literature, particularly in relation to managing the risks associated with forecasting traffic. The report focuses on actuarial, structural and behavioural approaches to improving the regulation of PPPs and containing liabilities created by PPPs for public finance. It also examines the potential for private financing of infrastructure by treating packages of transport projects as regulated utilities. The report aims to clarify the objectives of PPPs, their impact on public finance and the different types of risk that need to be managed.

    Expanding Airport Capacity under Constraints in Large Urban Areas: Summary and Conclusions of the Roundtable held on 21-22 February 2013 (2013)
    Paris : OECD Publishing
    Details
    Language: English
    Pages: 1 Online-Ressource (47 p.) , 21 x 29.7cm.
    Series Statement: International Transport Forum Discussion Papers no.2013/24
    Keywords: Transport
    Abstract: Expanding airport capacity is difficult in large urban areas. Expansion of existing airports is usually constrained by community agreements on noise and local air pollution and by a shortage of land. Finding sufficient land, at feasible prices, to develop or relocate major airports on green-field sites within a reasonable distance of city centres is often very difficult. Creating land for airports in locations less sensitive to noise and land-use conflicts, for example through offshore or estuarine land reclamation, is expensive and most new sites will require extensive investments in surface transport links to city centres. Furthermore, moving an airport imposes costs on airlines and their users as well as on activities located close to and dependent on proximity to the existing one. In multi-airport regions, options for expansion at one airport will impact the others and airlines, operating in increasingly competitive markets, may respond differently to alternative ways in which the region’s airport capacity might be increased.

    Abstract: Ce document examine brièvement la question de la coordination intermodale des services de transport du point de vue de ce que l’on peut appeler une « politique de la mobilité fondée sur la diversité ». Il analyse les conditions générales de la concurrence et de la coordination intermodales dans l’optique de l’élaboration de politiques de transport qui tiennent compte à la fois de la grande diversité des besoins et aspirations à la mobilité qui existent au sein des économies de marché et du coût d’opportunité pour la société de méthodes nouvelles aptes à répondre à la demande de mobilité…

    Abstract: This paper briefly discusses inter-modal coordination of transport services from a perspective of what could be called "diversity-based mobility policy". It examines the framework conditions for inter-modal competition and coordination under an approach to transport policy making that reflects the broad variety of mobility needs and aspirations in market economies and reflects the social opportunity costs of alternative ways of addressing the demand for mobility.
