The cost-<strong>benefit</strong> methodology and outcomes obtained for the GDA in this paper<br />

constructs a framework for scenario-based CBA evaluation <strong>of</strong> transportation-<strong>land</strong>-<strong>use</strong><br />

relationships. This will assist <strong>policy</strong> formulation, decision making and reviews concerning<br />

the transport infrastructure investment policies and decisions in the <strong>Plurel</strong> regions. This<br />

research has foc<strong>use</strong>d on CBA modelling research and <strong>analysis</strong> as a basis for best <strong>policy</strong><br />

implications and practices. Such <strong>analysis</strong> is required for the sustainable transportation<strong>land</strong><br />

<strong>use</strong> strategies in the GDA and the transfer <strong>of</strong> this knowledge and findings to the<br />

<strong>Plurel</strong> case study areas. The links with <strong>Plurel</strong> areas in terms <strong>of</strong> ex<strong>peri</strong>ences in <strong>urban</strong><br />

development, <strong>policy</strong> making, institutional structures and legislative settings will provide<br />

an evidence-based framework for developing a common European methodology for the<br />

best <strong>policy</strong> practices. In addition, the research and methodology developed for the GDA<br />

and <strong>Plurel</strong> regions will shed light on trans-national research and evaluation <strong>of</strong> major<br />

infrastructure projects and programmes.<br />
