Transport economics

Technical and economic studies and appraisal of transport projects and services: what they cost, what they deliver and whether they are worth it.

Transport economics answers practical questions: what a project or a transport service costs, who benefits and whether the investment is justified. The laboratory prepares feasibility and technical-economic studies for public bodies.

Indicative activities

  • Feasibility and technical-economic studies of transport projects and systems, such as light rail systems.
  • Support to the Athens Urban Transport Organisation (OASA) on service costing and fleet renewal.
  • A bus fleet renewal plan for Athens and Thessaloniki, with specifications and feasibility studies.
