Contributor Ligteringen, H. (promotor) Van Wee, G.P. (promotor) Faculty Civil Engineering and Geosciences Department Hydraulic Engineering Date 2015-05-13 Abstract This thesis addresses how a new method for the evaluation of policies with a very long term impact on the Dutch Inland Waterway Transport (IWT) system can be developed. It proposes an outline for a very long term transport model, prepares a number of very long term scenarios, and indicates that a different perspective on economic growth and future discounting is required to obtain realistic projections and develop sensible policies for issues with a very long term impact.
