Title: Freight transport: At any price? Effects of transport costs on book and newspaper supply chains in the Netherlands
Abstract: Although in the coming years, the introduction of multiple taxes on freight transport are planned, to date, little study has been done to systematically explore the effectiveness of taxation as a means to regulate freight transport. This work looks to partly fill in this knowledge gap. The main focus is on the effect of policy interventions that aim at raising the cost of freight transport on logistical decisions of shippers such as manufacturers and wholesalers, who, in turn, generate freight transport demand.
