Objectives:
The Working Group's objective has been to set out a development path leading to a mechanism for funding transport infrastructure services that in socio-economic terms is efficient, transparent and fair. The attainment of this objective will at once bolster the efficiency of the whole transport system and ultimately enhance the well-being of individual citizens, business companies and the public sector.
Methodology:
The work was carried out in a working group assigned by the Ministry of Transport and Communication Finland. The Working Group looked into questions concerning the funding of the transport infrastructure and drafted a proposal for a stepwise path to developing the funding of transport infrastructure services. The Working Group has focused primarily on the funding of services intended for road and street traffic, but funding for rail traffic has also been discussed.
