The key role of transport infrastructure in the emerging European network has provoked many questions as to the financing of new infrastructure. In the course of the twentieth century govemments in all countries have assumed responsibility for financing transport infrastructure. In the past decade, however, serious doubts have been expressed on the efficiency of a strong public financial involv...

The article deals with current problems of ontological modeling processes design, construction and operation buildings structures in transport infrastructure. Such involves use standards classifiers adopted Europe harmonized within BIM (Building Information Modeling) EULYNX (European railway technology alliance). Multi-level model infrastructure is proposed. This contributes to formation unders...

The informal construction of dwellings (housing) and the informal growth of transport infrastructure are two main dynamics of an informal settlement growth phenomenon that may influence each other over time. Some studies have been done to understand the growth mechanisms of informal settlements, but not enough attention has been paid to study the informal growth of transport infrastructure dyna...

We use several different data sets to investigate the dependence of transport costs on geography and infrastructure. Poor infrastructure accounts for 40% of predicted transport costs for coastal countries and 60% for landlocked. Landlocked countries can substantially reduce their high transport costs through improvements in own and transit countries' infrastructure. Analysis of bilateral trade ...

Exposure to airborne biological hazards in an ever expanding urban transport infrastructure and highly diverse mobile population is of growing concern, in terms of both public health and biosecurity. The existing policies and practices on design, construction and operation of these infrastructures may have severe implications for airborne disease transmission, particularly, in the event of a pa...
