| Abstract: | This paper addresses the question of road cost recovery in the Australian context. It reviews some of the major issues and emphasizes the inherent problems (both theoretical and practical) in resolving these issues. The result of these complexities is that the answers to many of the key questions are ‘assumption‐sensitive’. Some of the more significant studies which have been conducted in Australia in recent years are briefly reviewed, and the numerical results of one recent study—the National Road Freight Industry Inquiry (1984) are presented. |
