Urban air quality management is concerned with comparing two kinds of costs: those arising out of increased levels of air pollution and those involved in implementing an abatement program.

This Paper presents a summary of preliminary statistics obtained from the fourth quarter of the National Travel Survey (NTS). The results cover travel during the months of April, May and June 1978.

This paper presents estimates of the concentration of ownership and the geographic distribution of the Australian trucking fleet.

From July 1977 to June 1978, the Bureau of Transport Economics (BTE) conducted the National Travel Survey (NTS). This was a major survey of nonurban travel in Australia.

The present work builds on that published previously (BTE Occasional Paper 6, Photochemical Pollution in Australian Airsheds) to develop a discussion of the basic principles and specific measures appropriate to the improvement of urban air quality

The desirability of de-regulating road freight has long been a subject of discussion and action by governments in Australia. A recent visit to the United Kingdom by Dr K.W.

The emphasis in this paper is on the development of a suitable conceptual and operational framework within which a policy-sensitive empirical travel choice model could be estimated.

Company cars account for more than a third of new car sales in Australia.
