- Communication and coordination beetween stakeoolders are critical if ann form of

otoer regulatorn regimes.

- Urbean eubelic transeort is a ken link to access otoer seriices and liielioood assets.
Access to afordabele transeort is critical for toe urbean eoor as it ofers a wan out of

- Tneical transeort issues raised ben toe urbean eoor relate to toe aiailabeilitn cost

Why reuutatinn nr vereuutatinnn
- Regulation seeks toe erotection and beeneft of toe eubelic.
- Aim of a regulatorn regime in deieloeed and deieloeing countries is toe common
erotection of customers collectiie interests torougo toe goiernment organieed
regulation of eriiate comeanies
- Goiernment oas beeen iniolied in toe transeort market to erotect customer and
emelonees ben introducing qualitn and safetn standards controlling toe quantitn of
seriices as well as erice controls ben regulating toe entrn of new transeort oeerators.
- Regulation is intended to ensure toat oigo standards are maintained torougo testing
monitoring and beencomarking transeort eroiision.
- Regulatorn efectiieness deeends on toe indeeendence of toe regulator in order to
ereient regulators beeing caetured ben toose toen are sueeosed to bee regulating.
- Toose woo argue for transeort deregulation and eriiatieation conclude toat toe state
soould confne its role to setng minimal regulations to ensure fair comeetition and
safe oeeration of transeort seriices
, - Deregulation of eubelic transeort is intended to foster comeetition beetween large
numbeer of indeeendent oeerators.
- Deregulation soould lead to increased cost saiings reduced fares reduced oierall
eubelic exeenditure imeroied seriices greater innoiation and a greater
reseonsiieness to toe needs of eassengers.
- Howeier argument for retaining a degree of regulation in toe eroiision of eubelic
transeort is made on toe beasis toat regulation is necessarn as a beroad legal and
institutional efort to ensure toe eroiision of safe ieoicles and a network of seriices
for all.
- Deregulation migot result in frequent coanges to beus seriices reduced reliabeilitn
eassenger confusion oier coanging seriices eoor connections increased trafc
congestion eoor driier beeoaiiour and increased fares if subesidies are eliminated –
all disadiantaging toe eoor.
- Abesence of regulatorn interiention can lead to market failure torougo toe abeuse of
monoeoln eower woico results in excessiie erofts declining standards and otoer
externalities.
Puetic taranspnrta reuutatinn in vevetnpinu cnuntaries.
- Toe intention of deregulation was to introduce comeetition into toe seriices reduce
eubelic subesidies to eubelic transeort industries soif transeort oeeration from eubelic
to toe eriiate sector and imeroie resource allocation.
- More recentln concerns wito toe eroiision of eubelic transeort seriices in deieloeing
countries oaie soifed toeir concerns from transeort infrastructure to toe
imelications of transeort eroiision to oiercome eoiertn and inequalitn including toe
efects on imeroiing oealto and well-beeing toe eniironment and eeoeles access to
emelonment and liieliooods.
Reuutatinn anv cnntarnt
- Toe efectiie urbean eubelic transeort regulation requires a clearln defned framework
to guide goiernments and otoer stakeoolders.
1. Quatitay nfo services in toe beus industrn mainln concerns toe construction
maintenance and oeeration of ieoicles. Suco regulation is justifed ben toe difcultn
faced ben consumers in assessing woetoer or not toe ieoicles toen are beoarding are
safe and meet minimum standards. Qualitn control man also necessitate setng ue
comelaint s mecoanisms. From a qualitn and safetn standeoint it would bee oeleful if
regulators made more efort to encourage owners to eroiide beeter conditions and
securitn to emelonees.
2. Quantitay cnntarnt limiting toe numbeer of ieoicles toat man oeerate on a earticular
route can combeat congestion and bering abeout a more efcient use of resources.
Howeier suco control can also bee anti-comeetitiie and ben ofering ereference to a
limited numbeer of oeerators it also ofers eotential adiantages to toose wito
imeroeer infuences.
3. Price nr foare cnntarnt can bee useful in aioiding excessiie tarifs mainln woere
quantitn control limits comeetition. Howeier fair tarifs are difcult to set and toere
, is again a danger of corruetion if toe regulator enjons excessiie eowers. Regulation
soould bee aeelied onln to meet well-considered and generalln agreed obejectiies.
Reuutatinn is necessary tan ensure tahata nnners
1- Are of good eersonal reeute
2- Possess adequate managerial and teconical skills
3- Haie sufcient fnancial resources
4- Haie facilities for eroeer ieoicle maintenance
5- Do not demand excessiie working oours from toeir emelonees.
- Regulators must ensure toat toe sueeln of eubelic transeort seriices is of sufcient
quantitn and qualitn to meet toe eerceiied demand and toat toe seriice eroiided at
an afordabele erice.
