Across the border : building upon a quarter century of transport research in the Benelux

Promoting high quality research and education in the field of transport is the goal of BIVEC/GIBET, the Benelux Association of Transport Economists, which was founded in 1978. During the quarter century of its existence, the Association has evolved from a small group of transport academics into a solid and broad-based network of a diversity of transport experts. Across the border: building upon a quarter century of transport in the Benelux illustrates the contributions of the members of the Association to transport research, presenting a number of innovative topics which illustrate two recent and major trends: an increased attention to freight transport and an increased use of (multi-disciplinary) modelling techniques. This book does not claim to be an exhaustive survey of transport research in the Benelux but it certainly illustrates the importance of this topic at its universities
