That public transport is a potentially cost-effective and more environmentally sensitive mode of transport than travel exclusively by private automobile is not disputed. However in a developing country context, these systems are often mis-managed and underfunded and require ever-greater public subsidies. This publication explores successful management techniques to improve public transport efficiency as well as explores non-transport solutions to transport problems which can enable public transport to be more cost-effective.
