Accession Number: 00455808
Record Type: Component
Availability: Find a library where document is available Abstract: The findings of a cooperative University of California-University of Costa Rica study of the cost characteristics of transportation technology alternatives in three principal corridors of Costa Rica are summarized. The cost functions developed quantify the total fixed and variable costs of moving freight in each corridor as well as the corresponding energy consumption and the cost breakdown between domestic and foreign expenditures. Conclusions are drawn regarding the implications of these findings for the future development of intercity transportation in Costa Rica
