'The advent of electric vehicles, which won't pay fuel taxes, and autonomous vehicles, which may not even have passengers, puts front-and-center the need to revisit how road transport is funded. This Handbook provides a comprehensive overview of transport funding around the world, and serves as a necessary foundation for the emerging new mobility.' -- David Levinson, University of Sydney, Australia 'This new Handbook is a timely and impressive set of surveys of what theory and practice across continents can teach us about transport pricing and financing. Its systematic coverage of the concepts and tools used in transport policy as well as their relevance in the context of specific modes should help anyone working on the many challenges the sector is likely to face in the foreseeable future in a tense environmental, political and social context.' -- Antonio Estache, Universite Libre de Bruxelles, Belgium 'Huge amounts of money are spent on transport infrastructure, while the transport sector generates large volumes of greenhouse gas emissions. Meanwhile, the efficiency of transportation means is critical for both the global and the local economy. This Handbook is a welcome contribution that will shed light on important and heated debates about transport pricing and financing.' -- Jacques-Francois Thisse, Universite Catholique de Louvain, Belgium
