The study explores the problem of the selection of low-cost technologies for provision of transportation in developing countries. It surveys the range of technologies that might be used, investigates analytical approaches, and suggests bases for selecting among resource and cost alternatives. The chapters comprising the second of two volumes discuss potential cost savings in the design and use of ground vehicles; reduction of cost in aircraft, airports and airways; savings in the selection of waterway and harbor techniques; and economic models for the choice of levels of transport investment.
