Introduction


The concentrated route


This heavily regulated and relatively concentrated transport industry is set to remain, as the level of fare tariffs may change, many other factors that determine demand (and revenue) evolve only slowly - such as demographic changes. Further, even such things as changing attitudes to public transport may take years to significantly affect this evolving growth industry. As such, volatility is rather low, but certainly not lacking in the technology department with hybrid models released in favor of the old environmental hazards.
