Abstract

It is highly difficult to compare the systems of financing transportation improvements, because the systems differ among countries and transportaion modes. In this paper, we present a method for international comparison of these complicated financial systems by utilising the concept of actual payers. Additionally, we investigate the financial systems in a number of developed countries, and classify the financial resources for transportation in each using the present method. As a result, the financial resources for transportation are classified into eight categories, including Payers of national general taxes, Payers of local general taxes, users bearing the charges, and so on.
