It provides a set of indicators for the railways sub-sector of transport covering size, scale and various measures of productivity over a time frame long enough to permit adequate cross-sectional and time series performance evaluations.
The Private Concessions Database (PCD) developed in late 1990’s contains information on railway concessions.
Road Condition Index Road Condition Index is based on the percentage of the classified road network which is in "fair" or "good" condition. Recent values are available for some countries.
Rural Access Index (RAI) The Rural Access Index (RAI) , a key transport headline indicator, has been established to focus on the critical role of access and mobility in the reduction of poverty in developing countries. The RAI estimates the proportion of the rural population who have adequate access to the transport system.
