This Working Paper is an intermediate output in a research project being conducted by BTCE. The project team examines the adequacy of conventional methods for estimating economic benefits from transport and communications infrastructure investment.

Comparable figures are provided for the first time on emissions of greenhouse gases from the Australian transport sector in 1900 and 2000.
