Abstract

The objective of this paper is to present intermediate results of ongoing research projects concerning the assessment of marginal, external costs of transport in Belgium. These studies cover all environmental impacts from different modes (road, railway and waterway) for both passenger and goods transport. Within each transport mode, distinction is made between different options (e.g. motor/fuel technologies, traffic density, location).
