Abstract

This chapter introduces Part II of the book. It provides an overview of the five case studies of revenue use in Europe that are presented in Chapters 7-11. The first two are urban case studies that deal with the use of toll revenues and investment in Oslo, and with the rejected congestion-charging proposal for Edinburgh. The other three case studies focus on investment funds in interurban road and rail transport in Germany, Switzerland and France. The main goal of this chapter is to describe the central policy questions addressed in the case studies.
