Economic growth, trade and the concentration of population in large cities
will intensify demand for interurban transport services. Concurrently, the
need to manage environmental impacts effectively will increase. How successful
we are in coping with demand will depend on our ability to innovate, to manage
congestion, and to improve the quality of transport services. Technological
and regulatory innovation will shape the future of transport.

These conference proceedings bring together ideas from leading transport
researchers from around the world related to the future for interurban
passenger transport.. A first set of papers investigates what drives demand
for interurban passenger transport and infers how it may evolve in the future.
The remaining papers investigate transport policy issues that emerge as key
challenges: when to invest in high-speed rail, how to regulate to ensure
efficient operation, how to assign infrastructure to different types of users,
and how to control transport’s environmental footprint by managing modal split
and improving modal performance.
