Abstract
The concept of regulating transport may strike some readers as odd. In this age the motor car is sold as the ultimate symbol of personal freedom, regardless of how far from the truth that may be. However, in the 20th century we have witnessed the development of transport as a public service. Public transport is now synonymous with rail and bus travel. Both of these services were owned by the public sector, albeit in different forms.1 Thus both were intrinsically tied to a model of state regulation.
