These Notes provide guidance on some of issues that have proven more difficult to deal with in the application of both conventional cost benefit analysis in transport and addressing of the newer topics of interest.
The Economic Evaluation Notes are arranged in three groups. The first group (TRN-6 to TRN-10) provides criteria for selection a particular evaluation technique or approach; the second (TRN-11 to TRN-17) addresses the selection of values of various inputs to the evaluation, and the third (TRN-18 to TRN-26) deals with specific problematic issues in economic evaluation. The Notes are preceded by a Framework (TRN-5), that provides the context within which economic evaluation is used in the transport sector.
