Transportation Investment - Kotsutoushi

Japanese: 交通投資 - こうつうとうし
Transportation Investment - Kotsutoushi
Transportation services, along with food, clothing and shelter, constitute a fundamental part of our lives. Today, with the diversification of individual desires and major changes in the industrial structure, the demand for transportation services that correspond to these needs is ever increasing. Transportation investment is capital formation for transportation services, and it can be said that its role is becoming even greater in modern society. The level of transportation services is unlikely to be sufficient if it is left solely to the discretion of transportation operators. Therefore, it is common for the government or government-related agencies to intervene.

Japanese:
交通サービスは衣食住と並んで,われわれの生活の基本的部分を構成している。個人の欲求が多様化し,産業構造に大きな変化がみられる今日,これに対応した交通サービスへの要請はますます高まっている。交通投資は交通サービスのための資本形成であるが,その果たす役割は現代社会においていっそう大きくなっているといえよう。交通サービスの水準は,交通事業者の自由裁量だけにゆだねておいたならば十分とはなりにくい。したがって,そこに政府ないし政府関係機関が介在してくるのが一般的である。
