 Public transport services often become financially unsustainable due to a combination of poorly structured subsidies, improper fare controls, inefficient operations and poor financial management. Problems with funding are often interlinked and represent/share a larger, underlying problem. This provides the case for a wider and deeper analysis of the current problems, which may involve consultations and joint working with various stakeholders, including citizens, other government bodies and the private sector. The box below provides a number of questions to help assess the financial sustainability of urban transport.
