As the 112th Congress grapples with the need to reauthorize highway legislation, debate about federal transportation policy and transportation spending is likely to reflect two competing priorities -- the need for new investment and creation of jobs, and concern for the exploding national debt. This paper elaborates upon and deepens the ongoing policy discussion of relationships between investments in transportation infrastructure and the nation's short- and long-term economic well-being. This paper analyzes three key issues related to transportation investment, jobs, and economic growth: 1) The need to focus on returns from public investments. Short-term job creation, while vitally important, must be viewed within the context provided by a longer-term view. Over the long-term, higher productivity, the ability to generate more output and income from each dollar of capital or hour of work, is the key to higher labor earnings and improved standards of living. 2) Job creation and public investment in the current policy context. 3) The "multiplier" as a method for estimating job impacts. Spending on transportation is often justified on the basis of jobs impacts, but estimated multiplier effects carry substantial uncertainty.

To inform debate on a new transportation bill being considered, the authors review the literature on the economic outcomes of highway infrastructure spending, which constitutes the largest share of federal spending on transportation infrastructure. They highlight the connections between highway spending and the economy and then analyze the literature to trace the effects of highway infrastructure on productivity, output, and employment.

This book combines approaches from economics as well as business administration to stimulate scientific discourse and support decision-makers. The first part of the book examines the relationship between transport and economic growth, and specifically, whether "decoupling" of transport and economic growth appears possible. Previously unavailable regional data for Italy and Germany were collected and analyzed. The results indicate that transport makes an important contribution to economic growth.

This book explores the various economic and institutional factors that explain why huge investments are made in unworthy transportation mega-projects in the US and other countries. It is based on research, the general literature, economic analyses, and results from a specifically collected database showing that a significant proportion of implemented mega-projects have been found to be inferior ex-ante or incapable of delivering the returns they promised ex-post. Transportation infrastructure and other public investments of a similar scope (“mega-projects”) reflect public sector priorities and objectives, non-pecuniary as well as financial constraints, and a range of decision-making processes. This book describes how decisions made in the public sector with respect to transportation infrastructure investments are affected by the large populations and territories they serve, the estimation of the substantial opportunity costs they entail, the formal procedures instituted for quantitatively appraising projected outcomes and monetary returns, and the political environment in which these decisions are made.
