5 About MAGLEV 5

6 The Purpose of Japanese HSR Project 1. Economic Growth of Japanese economy 2. Regional Development for Regional Equity Issues 3. Environmental Friendly for Climate Change

7 Research Background High Speed Rail plays the role of interregional passenger transport. Regional benefits and regional economic effects are important issues of the HSR investment project assessment, sometimes more important than the efficiency of total benefits. The Spatial CGE models are able to provide the answer to above requests 7

8 Model Assumptions of Spatial CGE HSR: Interregional Passenger Transport System Explicit transport service demand (passenger travel) 8

18 Conclusions High Speed Rail projects are effective investments not only nationally but also locally in East Asia HRS investments decrease CO2 emissions in transport sectors, however increase it in industrial sectors. The outputs of the SCGE models are useful in evaluating the projects from multiple viewpoints. (regionally, environmentally and so on)
