摘要

The report evaluates the first eight months of British urban bus deregulation (from deregulation day, October 26, 1986, through the summer of 1987). The British program deregulated local bus services outside of the Greater London metropolitan area by (1) allowing operators to offer commercial (unsubsidized) service by simply giving authorities 42 days notice, (2) reorganizing public bus companies as for-profit corporations, and (3) allowing local authorities to supplement commercial services with subsidized services only through competitive bidding. In addition, public subsidies for local bus services were reduced. Deregulation has had promising results so far in the seven major metropolitan areas outside of London the authors studied. The level of competition among bus companies varies but appears generally effective and growing. Many of the specific practices adopted by the British government and companies appear transferable to the United States despite the higher subsidy levels and lower and more highly peaked ridership in the United States.
