La comprensión de la economía y el impacto más amplio de las infraestructuras de transporte presenta un gran desafío para los economistas. La escala de la inversión, la indivisibilidad, la sedimentación de los cargos correspondientes y la tasa de crecimiento económico son problemas que requieren análisis y crean polémica. Otros temas polémicos son la necesidad de depender de la financiación del sector público y algunas ambigüedades en relación impacto en la productividad. Esta colección autorizada de trabajos publicados anteriormente presenta una selección de las novedades en un campo que todavía está atrayendo nuevas ideas y planificadores de transporte desafiantes y los gobiernos, tanto en el mundo desarrollado y en desarrollo, y que indican algo de la diversidad de los análisis necesarios y los problemas que permanecen .
