Morrison, A. (2001) Quantity and Quality of Spatial Information About Public Transport in 58 European Towns, 1992-2000. [Data Collection]

Collection description

The investigator's aim was to assess the quality of spatial information about urban public transport in towns in one country with deregulated buses (Britain) and in four less wealthy countries of Europe, to compare the quality with that in the 11 wealthy countries with regulated public transport which were previously studied in 1995, and to assess the reasons for the differences. The specific objectives were:
to compare the availability and quality of spatial information about urban public transport for travellers in western European countries where public transport is regulated, with that in Britain where the buses are deregulated, and to investigate whether deregulation is the cause of the difference
to compare the availability and quality of spatial information about urban public transport for travellers in wealthy western European countries, with that in poorer countries in Western Europe, and
to investigate whether lack of funding is the cause of the difference.
