Johannesburg 1991 / In the economic and social development of any country, an effective road transportation
system is an important factor However, it also consumes a large proportion of the total
infrastructure costs, while the costs borne by the road user for vehicle operation and
depreciation arc even greater. A policy must therefore be adopted in which total
community costs for any road link Of network are minimized. To do this meaningfully,
alternatives must be developed and compared and the trade-offs between them carefully
assessed. This, in turn, requires the ability to quantify the different cost functions for the
desired period of analysis. [No abstract provided. Information taken from introduction] / MT2018
