Attachments Sammendrag

Co-ordinated national transport planning and the increased use of models for planning require an increased availability and quality of data for the transport sector. The system constraints for the transport industry are changing rapidly and this affects the volume and content of data and statistics. In this project we have surveyed the transport statistics available with the intention of proposing changes and improvements that will satisfy the increased need for transport statistics. This report considers the high-level constraints affecting this area at the start of the new decennium and also gives concrete recommendations for improvements in the statistics for both passenger transport and goods transport. The recommendations have been listed in order of priority.
