从公共政策的角度来看,非正规交通服务(未经官方批准提供的辅助交通类服务)往往难以合理化。虽然这些系统带来了好处,包括为依赖公交的人提供按需出行,为低技能工人提供就业机会,并在没有正式公交供应的地区提供服务,但它们也有成本,如交通拥堵加剧、空气和噪音污染以及交通事故。本文回顾了世界范围内非正式部门的经验,讨论了该部门的成本和收益,并使用几个案例研究来说明监管它们的不同政策方法。(c) 2007 Elsevier Ltd.版权所有。
Informal transport services-paratransit-type services provided without official sanction--can often be difficult to rationalize from a public policy perspective. While these systems provide benefits including on-demand mobility for the transit-dependent, jobs for low-skilled workers, and service coverage in areas devoid of formal transit supply, they also have costs, such as increased traffic congestion, air and noise pollution, and traffic accidents. This article reviews the range of informal sector experiences worldwide, discusses the costs and benefits of the sector in general and uses several case studies to illustrate different policy approaches to regulating them.
