It then examines the consequences that growth in leisure activities could have for transport policy

This publication gives the latest statistics on the situation of the transport market in Europe and presents charts which help show what changes have occurred between 1970 and 1997. Because it is published earlier than any other comparable study, this book provides the reader with first-hand figures about transport trends. It presents an analysis of the transport situation in Western and Eastern European countries, as well as the Baltic States and the CIS.
