A game theoretic approach to sustainable freight transportation: Competition between road and intermodal road–rail systems with government intervention
Abstract
Competition of two freight transport systems with government intervention is assessed. The interactions between the three dimensions of sustainability are investigated. Government intervention can effectively eliminate rebound effects. A practical solution is proposed to exempt the government from subsidy payment.
