A Review of Risk, Economics and Management. 3 Reasons Why Transport Needs Good Economists. Every discipline has its challenges. In this post I briefly list some of the challenges to economists that arise in transport planning; these are those things that make it just a bit more complicated than it might be. 1) The wide scope of the field. 2) Normal assumptions often do not hold. Convexity vs increasing returns to scale. Simply put, the minimum efficient scale for a lot of operations in transportation is ...
