Exploring the effects of economic crisis in road transport: The case of Greece
International Journal of Transportation Science and Technology, 2018 The transport sector is closely related to the economy of a country. This mainly applies to urban areas, which play an essential economic role in a country’s GDP. According to the EC’s Green Paper 2007 for urban mobility, approximately 1% of the EU’s GDP
